🆕 #HyperWorkouts Programme, the last of 2018! What a year…
Join in on Steve’s REAL phased-programming Workouts throughout the year, in pursuit of his 2018-2019 Body Goals – a strong and naturally muscular physique. No light weight for demo vid purposes – what you see here is raw. sweat, strain and form-challenging sets!
👉 FULL 5-DAY DEC-18 TRAINING BLOCK PLAN
With DEC-18 #HyperWorkouts, we are going for a true Bodybuilder Body Part Split to mix up the stimulus, take a break from the heavy CNS demanding lifting, and to illicit more frequency and volume for hypertrophy plateau busting.
DEC-18 DAY 4 of 5, SHOULDERS
Day 4 – lets work on getting some boulders for shoulders! You’ll be working the full complex of shoulder muscle – from, rear and lateral delts. Also getting in volume for the traps and rhomboids – muscles that connect to the shoulders and help with the aesthetic structure. Lastly, there is a little cheeky chest work at the end to get in our chest training frequency requirements.
1️⃣ EZ Bar Front Raises – 4x 8-12
2️⃣ Seated Dumbbell Side Raises – 4x 8-12

TO NOTE:
- Hex Bar Shrug – Similarly, if you don’t have a Hex Bar, you can shrug with some heavy dumbbells or even a barbell. The key is to get sufficient weight, isolate the traps and find a way shrug comfortably.
- Incline Bench Cable Flys – These are awesome, as you get to have constant tension and the bench allows for controlled super-wide flys. Just place a Incline Bench under a wide pulley system and set the handles low. Feel free to use a wide Pec Deck or similar if you game is equipped.
- Mobility & Pre-Activation – The idea is to work on dynamic stretches and short power work to warm up your limbs into full range of motion and to do a little work on muscle recruitment timing. This will help you feel mentally and physically prepared for your working sets. That said, what you choose to do will depend on your weaknesses or mobility issues.
- Cardio – Very little in the way of cardio. Honestly, if you go full out on this workout, you’ll not have the capacity for anymore. The intent of the cardio finisher is simply some light active recovery. To get the blood flowing into your limbs and begin the process of flushing out the metabolic waste buildup. Do too much cardio and it will be catabolic – not good.
