I start out with those, i find that not only do they help isolate the delts, they allow your shoulders to really warm up well before moving on to free weight presses, whichever kind you prefer.

We have two different hammer strength machines for shoulders (and most of the other muscles too) - some are the iso plate loaded ones, and some iso with individual weight stacks per side!

Enjoy both of them thoroughly!

I'm sorry to have to say this, but men use barbells to lift weights. Carry on ladys.

Im adjusting my training and the other body parts are starting to catch up, people are starting to comment a lot on my other muscle groups, still a long way to go but I think Im improving.

What do you think of the delts, dont you think they are closing the gap with the arms?

I think my gym has something similar to that second machine you mentioned, its exactly how you described it but its from the life fitness brand (dont know if its the same shit as hammer strenght?)


I start out with those, i find that not only do they help isolate the delts, they allow your shoulders to really warm up well before moving on to free weight presses, whichever kind you prefer.

I like free weigh presses too but with dumbells specially you just cant use too much weight because its very hard to execute the motion properly thats why I feel I get better pumps with the machines, I can load them with some heavy poundages and still isolate the delts pretty good. I used to be a big fan of smith military presses but now the machines are #1 for me.

you are correct, I took some other shots at the same moment and some look like its even a different person lol. hopefully when I start with the tren and the anadrols I will be able to post full body shots and look massive too

thank you
Hater's gonna hate lol! Looking jacked as usual. Always favored the hammer strength for shoulders myself. I usually alternate it with db presses every other week. Def more effective than straight bar and safer if you're an advanced trainer. Purenaturalstrength put 4 plates to a side on the hammer press and we will see how easy you think they are, lady

What is nice about the hammer strengths is that it allows u to load on the heavy weight but not lose the isolation on the muscle.  With free weights, on muscles like medial delts, you really have to foucs on the squeeze and this sacrifices heavy weight
