A-4-Delts and Triceps (1)

Wow. I'm already finished with one round of this cyle already. I saw gains with practically every exercise for the most part-with the exception of the overhead barbell press. Unlike the last time, I didn't progressively add weight. I, instead, held steady for 135 lbs. till the last working set to complete the high end of the prescribed rep range.

I saw gains the rest of the way with the following two shoulder exercises as I progressively added weight with the seated side lateral raises for up to 10 lbs. more than where I was before and with each successive working set. The same can be said of the front raises as I also added weight with each successive set.

To round out the workout with the last three exercises for triceps, I increased weight at the final working set for each of the exercises as the weights I used previously were still challenging enough to start.

Another good one.
