shoulders....no DOM's?

[chicagojosh]

Hello all,

I've been trying to bring up my delts, and have been hitting them hard, even giving them their own workout. I combine with traps, and my workouts are usually...

Military Press or OHP. 5 sets 8-12 reps
Lateral Raises. 5 sets 8-12 reps
Upright Rows (narrow grip). 3 sets 8-12 reps
Rear Delt flies. 3-4 sets. 8-12 reps
Shrugs. 4 sets 8-15 reps.

I'm not getting sore after this. with all other bodys parts I get DOM's. I never seem to with shoulders, even after placing more emphasis on a "shoulder day" Any thoughts? More weight less reps? more volume? I'm going at it hard as hell, thinking I'll barely be able to lift my arms the next 2 days...then nothing. I know DOM's doesn't necessarily mean gains, but I'm not sure the gains are coming like I thought either.

Thanks in advance.

Most people don't get DOMS in their shoulders. As long as your lifts are going up and your shoulders are growing, I wouldn't worry about DOMS. That goes for any body part.

You really need to give shoulders a very different stimulus, than what they are used to. If u are used to 8-12 reps shock with 4-6 and 15-20 or with some trisets etc.
