This is not a complaint nor am I bragging. I am looking for honest input. Both my delts and my biceps are impervious to training. Let me clarify they get stronger and they get pumped but they never grow and I never get any soreness from training them. I did say never. I have tried low reps and heavy weight I have tried moderate weight and high reps and even done down the rack kind of stuff, burn out stuff negatives all kind of stuff. I used to curl massive poundage until I hurt my brachia in my right arm. My delts on the other hand have never been very strong and part of that I am sure can be blamed on the 3 times I dislocated my right shoulder. But, even when I was lifting at 16 yrs old into my early 20s before shoulder injures they were always lagging.
Right now my shoulders Look better then they have my whole lifting career I think it is due to the cut I am on and the striations are showing but they are still lagging. This 8 week cycle has all been on the cut so I have been on high reps (8 to 15)and sets (10 to 12) as compared to the last 40 weeks on a heavy lifting routine of 4 to 6 reps and 6 to 8 sets. I rotate exercises every week here they are in order for this cycle. I do these on the same day as triceps and i do rotater cuff exercises before these. These change every 8 weeks also

we can save biceps for a latter post as this one is getting long. So is there enough variety in exercises? do you thing I should do raises every week? Am I making all this up and really eating Cheetos and drinking beer in my moms basement? Should I do shoulders more often then every 7 days? Is there some secret exercise I should be doing? Do I just need to work harder?
