-Rest :30-

12-16 DB Lateral Raises* (Moderate)

-Rest 1:30 b/t Sets-

*After the last set of lateral raises, lower the weight and perform another max set. Then grab a lighter pair of DBs and go again.

(Score is Weight on Strict Press)
GOAL: RPE 9 | Big boulder shoulder feel after this one. For the lateral raises, remember to finish the set with 2-4 reps that require a little swinging to get them up. You don’t want to be super strict on these. We want to flirt with failure to give those delts a nice pump!

GOAL: RPE 9 | More drops sets to cap off a strong day 3 going into a well-deserved rest day. The whole point here is to push the limits and accumulate some very tough reps. Enjoy!
