Author Topic: since my delts are really under developed, what am i doing wrong? (Read 109048 times)

yes but Training the shoulder girdle with delt and trap Training (a part of the back yes but involved in a lot of shoulder moves) is paramount to a wide look. In the old Days they used padded shoulders in suits. posture is also important, i see the effects of muscle distbalance every day in the gym. straightening up and pulling your shoulders back makes a visible difference.

Performing lateral movements have their impact on wideness, but that's only limited. The back, and the serratus as well (pull overs!) is an important foundation for wideness.
Yeah, posture is another important aspect. To improve this, I see many gym rats performing rear delt exercises, but they don't know how to train their backs correctly.

well yes lats are important i agree but pull overs to build a wide appearance ..no, i disagree. ok the serratus can also be trained with a form of kneeling cable crunch. pull overs are a good lat exercise(for me) but as some believe a rib Cage builder no..i do not believe this. The whole package is important. Upright rows lift the shoulder girdle and are a good tool to use if you have no shoulder issues. Upright rows were for me hard but i find now i can do them.

Basically doing a lot of work in a short period of time. Running the rack is a good example of a technique that increases training density. You can do a complete delt workout in 10-15 min. It's obviously not the only way to train but it can be very useful. Especially if you have been doing heavier and slower paced training for x amount of weeks.

Ahh very good! Yeah that's how I like to train delts too, but more like 25 mins or so.

It's mainly back training that gives a person that wide look.

Correct....from the BACK. From the front, delts will give you width.

I could, but the guy who sports then at the gym might object to my taking his photo to post on Getbig. The interesting thing about this fellow is that he's recently dropped about 25 lbs. The more cut he's become the more pronounced and wide his deltoids appear.

Some of what makes for a great bodybuilding physique is illusion. It is all about ratios between different areas on the body and defined muscular development. At least this was the case in the years before all the perma bulkers.

yep, but you can't lift pussyass weights and have a jacked physique, just not possible

do you think this dude lifted pussyass weights?

hell no he didn't
