You list 5 different exercises; 10 - 15 reps per exercise equals one set; 3 sets (no rest between) equals one circuit; rest two minutes between circuits; increase weight by 5 lbs for next circuit. OK so far, but how many circuits?

The problem is my shoulders do not seem to grow! I start w/front row (bar), shrugs(bar), bend over raises (bell), side raises (bell), overhead lifts (bell) and then finish w/front raises (bell). Am I doing too much, not enough, not enough weight, too much or are my genetics just wrong. I do 3 - 4 sets 10 ea. I place more weight on each set, last set I do as many as I can w/o adding any more weight. Thanks for any help you can give me.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('7299','Steve'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('7299','Steve','I watched your shoulder blast and I do that plus a couple more.

Continuous circuit 10-15 reps 3 sets 2 minute rest between circuits Add 5 pounds each circuit Start 5 pounds heavier each workout This means that after 5 weeks, if you started with only 10lb you'd be Arnold Pressing 35lb for the first set and 45lb for the third set! You'd need to be Arnold wouldn't you? I know I'm a Hardgainer but it takes me months to increase by 5lb. If my set consists of 12 reps to failure, I have to wait until I can increase my reps to 18 before failure before I can consider upping the weight by 5lb, otherwise I simply can't do it. On a continuous circuit like this (I think you can call it supersetting, pyramid supersets) I would start with a lowish weight 7.5kg (16.5lbs) because you have to do flies as well, which are harder than presses, and work through using the same weight for all. Easy to start with, but as the superset wore on, the muscles tire and find it more difficult (the whole idea, I know), so I just don't see adding 5lb each workout as realistic, not for the Average Joe or Jane anyway. Hey, I'd like to think i could do it, but I know I wouldn't. You probably recognise I've taken a few phrases from your friend? Jeff Anderson as I've taken up his Hardgainer routine. I do like your Shoulder exercise though, hence my interest. I do it on my off days, so Hardgainer Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Shoulders Tuesday, Thursday. I'm not overtraining am I?
