    I have to do a bunch of girl exercises with 5 lbs weights because of two shoulder surgeries from baseball.

    Another Technique I like to do for rear delts is..............

    1. I use plates instead of DB's, I feel the weight is more balanced and because they have a slimmer profile I can pull my arms back kinda like a bird w/out hitting my legs (This is where kettleballs would work awesome)

    Because of this I do them bent over and have to stand on the edge of a box cause I go up to 25lbs plates and they would hit the floor as I have longer arms.

    2. I like to do a drop set after each set w/ a 10 lbs plate after my working set.

    The first set I use a tad of momentum to get started and always try to resist on the way down, once fatigued I imediatly use the dimes and focus on ubber strict form for a HUGE pump,

    Probly my fave technique^^

    For your seated military presses, are they behind the neck?

    It's similar to mine but you have more exercises and supersets. I think I will wait till a start my cycle before I attempt it. Currently I do:

    1. Seated Mil Press 5X6-12
    2. Arnold Press 3X6-10
    3. Side Laterals 3X8-10 (Super set the last set, dropping 10lbs each time, e.g. 45lbs, 35lbs, 25lbs getting about 8reps each no rest)
    4. Upright rows 2 or 3 sets 8-10 reps

    Why did you say hell no to behind the neck? because it's bad on the shoulders? I get better results behind the neck but when I start to get heavy it does hurt my shoulders. I've been thinking of doing the front of neck, it just feels so different.

    yeah I dumped behind the neck years ago,

    BTW I dont do this everytime, I do a similar routine to yours w/ a few diff here and there,

    I guess if you want to keep doing Behind T N P its up to you,

    It is a pretty intense routine I would do it like once a month at most.

    power clean isnt popular because most gyms dont have the rubber weights which should be used while performing this exercise
