Shoulders & Traps Drop Set Workout

Drop sets are a great technique to use to really pump up the intensity of a workout. It consists of continuing an exercise with a lower weight when failure has been reached at a higher weight. Reducing the weight as quickly as you can is extremely important.

Workout Notes:

• Do as many repetitions as possible while keeping good form with your initial weight. Then reduce the weight used until exhaustion is reached again. Continue to reduce weight three times. ex) 25, 20, 15 = 1 set
• Preform the workout only once a week with at least 3 days of rest in between shoulder workouts
