Are 3d capped delts possible as a natty?

What does misc think, pics for reference. Not saying the examples used are natty but hopefully you get the picture.

It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."

if it looks unnatural - it probably is.

yes bro (srs) The problem is retards don't hit the side and back delt enough. I barely see anyone take side laterals serious and they wonder why they have poverty shoulders. Like they do 3x10 and wonder why their shoulders won't grow lol. You need to be doing 5x50 sets (srs) with a light weight you can control

I'd say if pumped and good genetics, yes, as well as massmaxxing.

But no way you are going to walk around with low bf% without a pump and have 3d delts natural.

Not really, natural

Low bf meaning sub 10%. You need a certain amount of muscle mass on your delts to manage to have a 3d look. How are you going to achieve that when you have low bf without a pump? Your body sure as hell does not want to keep muscle mass on your delts

Many might think they have 3d delts, but snap a pic instead of looking in the mirror and you'll see you're still not at the finish line

Now, take this with a grain of salt as this comes from ****gy non avi non natty lifter of 3 of the past 12 years.

You can still have impressive delts, I had striations and what not by my rear delt never ever popped, even with drugs.


They tell you as a natty dumb shiii like ohp heavy in the 1-5 range like wtf is that gonna do to a joint designed to snap to protect ya organs?

My advice,
Do NOT OHP in the strength range period, If you are benching heavy enough, your pushing strength with be there, in fact trying to do both my strength/gains suffered.

Do hit them 2-3 a week, with a **** ton of raises in each direction. Doesn't have to be heavy, can be a legit 10 min pump and done

Press at the end of the workout on a machine or something where you can go all out and exhaust them no less than 10

Cable shoulder presses for joint stability/ and lots of ext rotatioms

John meadows partials.....!
You will look like a dooomas, but I gotta hella gains, natty. Best exercise for delts imo


Best of luck boyo, don't try to keep up with Jones's. Most of them dudes are on cycles completely blind and will reap what they sew. There is no free lunch


Mind the grammar/punctuation, I am a bro, not a scholar

With really good genetics, sure. But overall, tough.
Can certainly get it temporary through a pump, once the deltoid muscles have been matured and developed enough.

Just lmao at 5x50 lat raises with light weight. Are you training to lift the milk in the morning?

Yes it is possible, with enough mass and a low bodyfat it is possible just probably not to the extent of the photos above

I'm not saying you can do 5x50 and not have good shoulders. I'm saying you're grade A moron if you think you need to do that to have good shoulders

Nobody needs to have big shoulders to tell you that it is idiotic. Just like I don't need to be a doctor or a health expert to tell you that just because apples are healthy, eating your apple in 5x50 individual pieces doesn't make them more healthy

Imo the only pic in the OP that looks unattainable is the first guy. Looks like he's myspacing the angle a bit, but I think his delts still protrude a good bit more than the other guys'.

Cavill's definitely look attainable here.

w/e bro. All I'm saying is that strength gains come so slow with shoulders, you have no choice but to do crazy high reps for shoulders to get any decent hypertrophy in your shoulders. It's why most nattys have chit tier shoulders, they don't understand this


brb add 10kg on your ohp after years and wonder why your shoulders are still smallAll shoulder lifts are notoriously slow at gaining strength, I've seen people ohp the same weight for years LOL (also a overrated exercise for 3d shoulders)

Maybe you need to check your form if you can only hit them adequately using a 50 rep max weight

You can have decent delts. Most people have **** delts because they still think presses are a good exercise for medial delts Lmao

Been in the game for a decade plus and I think you can get pretty close to most of those delts natty OP but you have to make compromises-- either trade off some size or some striations, because JFL if you think you'll have those low BF% boulder delts of peace and prosperity if you're a natty.

I have reasonable shoulder genetics and naturally good shoulder lifts and even I don't think I've achieved that size exactly though.

Why do you want capped delts.

Dead giveaway of not nattiness. Completely ruins the golden ratio.

Yes, but its dependent on genetics and a low body-fat. I know a few tradies with capped delts. Dudes who don't even lift weights but do a lot of construction. Hoisting stuff overhead, hanging dry-wall, etc.

I've a relative that's 6'2 175lbs. Maybe about 8-9% bodyfat. Never lifts weight. Just works construction. Dude is shredded with capped delts.

Strength is irrelevant for capped delts.

A lot of pro's don't even count reps on lateral raise. I might argue the delts don't 'really' get fired up into you hit 18+ reps. At least, mine don't. Lateral raise in the 25 rep range works best for me.
