Top 5 arm workout

This workout definitely ranked in the top 5 solo workouts Ive ever had. Such a great pump!

When i work shoulders i concentrate on the rear head of the muscle, it doesn't get involved enough in most standard shoulder exercises. You really have to isolate it in order to fully develop your shoulders and make them stand out and tie in nicely with the rest of your back muscles. I mentioned early that i was going to concentrate on triceps today and i chose a bit of a strange one for the forth exercise. I don't know the name of it, but you could think of as a simple one arm cable pulldown... Only behind your back. I'll name it or find a name for future posts...

SHOULDERS
Plate bent reverse flyes 10x4
Plate front raises 10x4
Cage upright rows (this is a compound exercise, that involves the shoulders, traps and biceps.) 10x4.

BICEP'S
Spider curls 10x4.
Seated alternating dumbell curls 10x4.

TRICEPS
Cage close grip presses 10x4.
Seated Barbell overhead extensions 10x4.
Cable behind the back pulldowns 10x4.
Dips 10 slow, stretch at the top.

As always, 10 second or less rest between sets.
