HOW TO BUILD DEATH STAR DELTS

In case it's not obvious, the deadlift clip is an example of what NOT to do. Hence posting a video from many years ago when I didn't know anything, and explaining how brute strength doesn't necessarily equate to optimal outcomes in a hypertrophy context (or in a keeping you out of the hospital with a snapped back context).

Bro's delts looks like younger Toguro.

pump training only makes sense for ppl taking gear

i cannot lift much weight with my delt exercises, my curls and everything get stronger but the delt is weak

I got jacked doing only these workouts

Ah back when my boy was on the sauzooooo

Tumors for shoulders.

Sweet i have speed dumbbells so i can surf the....adjustment. i am scared to go heavy on laterals and it has held me back FOREVER even when i can bench 400 i still never got any side. My grip is the same i ignore it

So not tomorrow, right now, i will find my lateral raise weight and write it down and do it. Next workout ill add reps or weight. Over and damned over. Im ready haha

16 years of lifting mostly power and strength but recently all.

My genetics for delts are awesome and im shortish about 5'7" . I need to harness my anime arms to the full potential!

Excellent intro
Most people forget to use progressive overload on side delts too!

I am as big as you with out ped,s and im 45 years old

Greatest shoulders ever

Are those lateral raises or some variation of dumbbell upright rows?

Summary: train multiple sets to failure, ideally drop sets, and a firm mind-muscle connection on every rep

How to build delts, take hella gear

More plates, more delts!

Amen. Focus on the contraction and then the stretch. Time under tension and a slow negative have given me the best results when it comes to growth.

Traps , Delts aka Boulder Shoulders & Chest - Upper Chest are High Androgen Receptor Areas.. PEDs does 'help' ..
Nattys can train these areas.. they will look 'fit' and stronger than average Dad bod.. But they will Never be as Thick and Pop like yours or Jay Cutlers. being on gear does help develop those death star delts..

1: tren

Fuuuuccc, i felt my disks displacing watching that old clip of you deadlifting. You have come a long way since then haha.

When you don’t train legs you can hit delta twice as often

When I flex, my shoulders look like football but when they're relaxed it loses its roundness.

Soooo just take steroids?

Surfing the rack is a great tip. Have started doing that specifically with lateral raises to see how I get on.

Do a bunch of side lateral raises for a pump before you make your video and angle the camera in a way that cuts off your nik nak arms and emphasizes the pump in your side delts. Not hard to see what he does people.

Derek has a decent physique but nothing more. For a guy who seems to be rather knowledgeable his physique is unremarkable.

tren hard, eat clen :D

He calls himself Derek. But this is Jimmy Neutron!

Best mpmd opening yet

There are indeed more androgen receptors in the shoulders for men. Thus, more free testosterone floating around, more developed delts. Too bad legs aren't as dense in receptors.

Bruh was insanely uneven during the first lateral raises. Yo wtf?

I just started lifting as a 30 year old male for the first time in my life about 2 months ago. Im struggling on the mind muscle connection part with a lot of movements because im not always feeling it in the correct places when doing certain movements especially a lot of back training. But i am trying to get it with every set it just doesn't always seem to connect

I built mine but ending up hurt later on. Bench, military presses "mistake" going heavy, lateral raises by higher volume, Arnold rear shoulder exercise. My shoulders gotten so big my from my thumb to the small figure still couldn't cover it.. I didn't anything much different but focused on trap, shoulders, & neck. Nice video! I did some of the exercises you shown...I alway changed the exercises & the raise I stayed away from the heavier weight. My shoulders & traps always grown easy. Even in school my traps & shoulders were stronger than the other lifters... just subscribed

derek has by fer the best shoulders iv ever seen its impressive

For anyone else like me who loves these videos but wants the key points:

1. Progressive overload and drop sets - strength and pump...work to failure

2. No ego lifting - focus on lower weight, feeling it including e-centric stretch and not just moving the weight. Increase weight from there with great form. Pump with progressive overload = optimized hypertrophy

3. Dedicated shoulder workout/day - not necessary but probably a good idea

4. Work all 3 sides of the delt, especially rear delt

5. Androgen response - maximize your genetics

The way he trains just prove that being on a shit ton of gear gives someone 4x an advantage.

Oh come on… tren responses aren’t trolling. All in good fun.

I have Millennium Falcon delts 😢

Right on bro. I’ve done both powerlifting and P90X (more of a bodybuilding routine), and I noticed while powerlifting, sure I could lift heavier, but my endurance was crap. Nowadays I do this, less weight, better form, feel the muscles activate and more reps. Endurance goes through the roof and I look just as good, if not better.

Hub caps

I’ve noticed hitting shoulders with high intensity relatively low set volumes twice a week has helped (as a natty) to blow them up since I’m still able to hit them hard without absolutely fucking my recovery.

Nice intro

his delts are so big they look dumb

I got huge delts from doing bradford presses (srs)

Its all about the squeeze, slow every rep way down.

I literally don't feel my delts with any exercise. And they are tiny.

What Derek talks about when it comes to "feeling" your muscles is being interoceptive. Andrew Huberman talks about this. One thing that MASSIVELY increases your interoceptiveness is marijuana. You can feel every single muscle in your body with a little bit of pot. It's pretty incredible. Super useful for figuring this kind of shit out. Also very useful if you have an injury and are trying to stretch and figure out how to fix it.

The delts be growing like Tetsuo
