60's for 12...oh, brother ::)

Yet i'm sure his standing dumbbell press weight is lacking

They are only delt exercise that matters.

I attribute most of my overall size, which is impressive, to seated dumbbell side raises.

I prefer seated side raises.

In Arnold's Encyclopaedia he said he  used to keep a dumbbell under his bed, then do some rear-delt side raises from the end of the bed when he woke up.

Seated then when i reach failure i get up and bang a few more reps

that being said, cable laterals are much superior
cable laterals are outstanding!!

I alternate every few weeks. Hold the dumbbells with the weight pressed to my pinky so my wrists are forced to twist forward a little when my arms are up and parallel to the ground.

Standing, 2 arms at a time, done pretty strict.

8 reps minimum, 12-15 reps more common.

Done after seated presses and bentover chest-supported laterals.

I've had shoulder issues that make me a little cautious - usually use no more than 35-40's for these.
