Machine Shoulder Press

So the link below qualifies as my most effective exercise of the week. It has been quite some time since I have used this machine, and it was just introduced this week on the Labarada 12 Week Lean Plan. I am always very careful with shoulder exercises. People typically make the mistake of using too much weight on their more delicate shoulder joints, so of course I definitely kept the weight light. I definitely smoked my shoulders with this machine!

I have come to have a new appreciation for my shoulders. They have started to shape very nicely within the last 6 months or so, and I really think it looks very attractive. I mean, having nice shoulders means you are guaranteed to look great in tank tops and sleeveless shirts. Not to mention, my biceps and triceps are coming along nicely as well. :-)

The link below is a sample of the workout plan I am currently following. I will be doing this workout tomorrow, with some alterations and additions. I usually do 3 regular sets before the failure set, and before each exercise, I will do 20 push ups. I will probably also add in some regular cardio at the end to loosen up my legs, since I will work legs & abs tomorrow. The program is a great foundation to build off of though!
