Fri., 9/23/16, SUPER-HERO-SHOULDERS

Verse of the day: Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing and perfect will of God. -Roman 12:2

Today I finished the last of my 6 week "Super Hero Shoulder" program. I found this workout in a Flex magazine when I was a teenager. This is the third time I've set aside 6-8 weeks to do it. It is a very challenging routine, with little rest and some unusual stuff. Here's how it looked for me:

seated dumbbell press: (3 warm ups 15s-15, 30s-8, 45s-8) 65s-15,11,6,5 (should be 15,12,10,8)
   super-set with standing lateral hold/pumps*: 20s,20s,15s,15s

incline front raise: 15s-15,12,10,8
   super-set with seated front hold/pump**: 12s,12s,12s,10s

incline rear lateral raise: 35s-15,12,10,8
   super-set with lying lateral hold/pump***: 20s,20s,15s,15s

*Stand holding a set of dumbbells out to the sides for 20 seconds and then do 6 reps of lateral raises.
**Sit holding a set of dumbbells to the front for 20 seconds and then stand and do 6 front raises.
***Lay flat on your face on a flat bench holding a pair of dumbbells out to the sides for 20 seconds and then do 6 reps of bent over lateral raises.
****NOTE: There is only 20 seconds of rest between super-sets.... It takes no longer than 21 minutes, and if you do it right will pump your delts like nothing else.
