would it be cool to do dumbbell press with palms facing in on oneof the days a week instead of flys. would it be good to delt work, on one of the other days instead of flys. i only want to do this on the weeks doing flys all three days.

your best bet would to do the program as written. If you want to do different stuff you can do it on the non training day or a day off. |

I've got to week 5 of the 13 week beginner program, but my left shoulder just cant take DB Flyes anymore - that exercise really makes it grind and ache. Over the last few sessions I've found that a good alternative is to do cable flyes instead, as it still gives a really good stretch, but it doesnt hammer my shoulder.

Over the last few sessions I've found that a good alternative is to do cable flyes instead, as it still gives a really good stretch, but it doesnt hammer my shoulder. Substituting develomental SPP exercises is not as crucial as changing the rest of the program. Basically the programs can be read and interpreted this way: Dumbbell flyes=any chest movement that works the pecs Tricep pressdowns=any tricep movement that works multiple heads of the tricep And so on and so forth. If something hurts, then keep the spirit of the exercise and find a way around it. Just don't get crazy and start changing the supplemental S.P.P. exercises or the competition exercises just yet. -Eric |

good answers.
to the original poster:
Have you ever done db flies on the floor? Like a BB floor press, it restricts the motion and saves your shoulders.

Thanks Eric. Apart from modifying the flyes, i'm still sticking to the original program as much as poss.
