I also like shrugs and laterals as well. But for overall developmetn I say anytype of pressing movement. -------------- LIFT HEAVY! BECOME STRONG, LIKE BULL! 7707mutt@freetrainers.com

It wont build mass the same way a typical press done slowly does, but it will defianetely build power and strength. -------------- Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.
