    Right now my goal is to add a lot of muscle to my upper body as I am lower body dominant. Looking to HOPEFULLY add 10 lbs of muscle to my upper body this summer, more relastically maybe 5. I am thinking of switching away from 5*5 for shoulders to dropsets which someone on here told me about.

    If you guys can think of a way to critique this to aid in better gains please let me know. Thanks a ton!

    My biggest concern is if I should increase reps for exercises to increase lean muscle gain?

    The increase in reps give more definition but higher weight low reps give u mass my advice is to increase your weight to your 10 rep max and do that for 3 sets cuz that will get you cutt and big
