3 SETS (Weight)
8-12 Seated DB Shoulder Press (Myo Reps)*
Rest 2:00
12-15 Incline DB Twisting Curls (Moderate)
-Rest 3:00 b/t Sets-
*For Myo-reps, start with an activation set of 12-15 reps to near failure on the seated DB shoulder press. Rest 15-20 seconds, then perform 4-6 reps for multiple mini-sets until you can no longer complete at least 4 reps. The goal is to push through 3-5 mini “”rest-pause”” sets after your activation set.
(Score is Weight on Shoulder Press)
GOAL: RPE 9 | Week 1 of 6. Perform the Myo-reps shoulder press with controlled form to fully fatigue the delts, focusing on strong, consistent reps throughout the mini-sets. For the twisting curls, prioritize a full range of motion and controlled eccentric to maximize those arm gains!
