Since this workout takes place at the end of the week I occasionally get too busy/tired and skip or delay it. I’m really noticing some new definition in my shoulders and triceps though!
Deltoid Exercises: A lot of dumbbell work. For the leaning lateral raises I just grip a bench press rack, lean over by about 30* and do a raise. Partial side raises I just raise the the dumbbells up to 45* before letting them drop again.
Converging Machine Shoulder Press: Reverse Pyramid of 6/8/10/12 reps at 115/100/85/70 lbs total.
Partial Dumbbell Side Raise: 2 sets of 10, 55 lbs each side.
Leaning Lateral Dumbbell Side Raise: 2 sets of 10, 50 lbs each side.

Triceps: I’ve been getting too close to the max on the triceps extension machine so I just recently transitioned to doing barbell skullcrushers. The extension machine also tends to lead to poorer form because I have to stabilize with my abs.
Barbell Skull Crusher Tricep Extensions: 3 sets of 10, 75 pounds total.
Rope Tricep Overhead Extensions: 2 sets of 10, 77.5 pounds total.
Dumbbell Kickbacks: 2 sets of 10, 47.5 pounds each side.
