Man, the one area of training where I have serious trouble are my shoulders. I just can't add weight to the bar, and any progress I make are really tiny baby steps. It's frustrating. Part of my problem is that I don't know what I should be doing to correct it. I've read that doing more volume can help, I've read that doing less volume and heavier sets will help. Right now I'm focusing on less reps for the higher weight. Here are my sets from yesterday.
12/14/11
Standing Overhead Press - 4 sets
45x10 (warmup)
75x6 (warmup)
125x4
125x3
125x2
105x7
Preacher Curls - 3 sets
60x8 (warmup)
90x6
90x5
80x6
Looking at last week when I pressed:

It's progress. Baby steps, but progress. Next week the goal is 5 reps, again 3 sets. I also added another set at 90lbs for preacher curls.
