An Email I received this week from Neil Hill included a shoulder workout from his Y3T workout range. Below is the Email including the workout!

Hi Karl,

I’ve come up with a Y3T Week 3 shoulder workout which I feel is going to test your absolute limits! After this workout you won’t be able to lift your arms above your head because the pump is going to be frigging crazy! Before you start this workout make sure that you’re mentally prepared to push f***ing hard, digging VERYdeep!

Giant Set X 3

Seated machine shoulder press 25-30 reps Side lateral dumbbell raises 20-25 reps Upright rows 20-25 reps Partial side lateral dumbbell raises 20-25 reps

Giant Set X 2

Seated dumbbell side raise to front raise 20 reps Standing plate front raises with twist 20 reps Standing cable straight bar front raises 20 reps

Triple Drop Set X 3

Smith machine shoulder press 15 reps per drop (totalling 45 reps)

Rep tempo: Keep to a 1-2 second controlled rep tempo on all raises, with a solid 2 second tempo the pressing movements

Rest periods: Stick to 120 seconds between each giant set/triple drop

Smash the f***er up!

Well he did warn me! I couldn't lift my arms above my head and the pump was increadible. I recomend this workout to anyone who already trains regularly, however I feel it may be a little intense for a total novice.
