Looks alright.  Personally I dont like stading barbell presses for shoulders.  I feel it's too dangerous for the lower back.  You're not doing any raises?  I find one set of lateral raises to absolute failure at the end of a shoulder workout a killer, keep doing reps, even if they're only half or quarter reps on this excercise.
It hasn't helped...

The exersise selection looks good, I would up the reps on the shoulder press. 

For muscle hypertrophy you want to be in the 8 - 15 rep range, strength would be in the 3 - 6 range.  Looks like you have a good mix of both. 

I'd go for pure strength to started, get those weights up a bit in the 3 - 6 range for about 4 weeks, then you can use heavier weights in the 8-15 rep range for about 4 weeks and you should see some growth, depending on diet.

Ive been doing standing presses for a while and im going back to seated presses. standing is good for a while but you will get bigger delts by using more weight while seated IMO.


do the presses while seated on a plain flat bench with no back support. they are the bomb.

Not possible. 

All you have to do it progress somewhat.  Do more reps with the same weight, lift more than last week, take less rest.......just progress.

Every single session I try to increase the weight by 5llbs or 1 rep.....obviously it's not possible but it has been for the past month.....when I stall, I usually change the movement i.e. dumbell to barbell etc....seems to work nicely
