droopy what u mean??
hes means, and im saying this in the nicest way possible, if you were to play football your shoulder pads would roll right off cause you dont have any shoulders, your shoulders is whats gonna make your MM wider like tonys, do you know what i mean? you should do more side raises alot of rear delt work, also do you do barbell or DB shrugs???/

I think its just the angle + bad posing that is giving his shoulders that look.

Yep. Max's shoulders are nothing special, but they look so terrible in that shot because his posing is very bad.

The picture being taken from below doesn't help either.

Laterals aren't very sufficient myofibril builders imo. A nice isolation, dynamic exercise but I don't think "doing more laterals" is the answer to the equation.

Focus on your presses. Push press, military press (free weight, smith, standing) doesn't make too much of a difference, DB OH shoulder press...all of these. Work hard and smart and go heavy.

^Kevin, I told him to do more laterals.

Basically I told him to pre exhaust with laterals because im pretty sure hes been doing a pressing movement as his first movement for awhile now and his results aren't great. Pre exhausting his shoulders with straight arm laterals first could be the thing to spur growth. Even though there isn't much time left pre exhausting could help him out. I mean what could more laterals hurt? Obviously the pressing movements havent been working that great so laterals could spur more growth.

It could, that's true.

Pre-exhausting has been shown to do very little in terms of hypertrophy. That said, if he's seeing poor results from his current pressing movement, simply enough change a variable. Change sets, reps, rest intervals, specific exercises, equipment, etc. Pressing movements and lateral are not similar in nature so giving that advice is fine, if he's got no more options, but he does.

Not trying to start an argument, you know that.
