Hi Jim,
I just wanted to follow-up about daily band work… You told me to pick either band pull-aparts OR facepulls for 100 reps for (I think) one workout cycle (10 weeks typically)… I hit my traps hard but I really think the daily handwork helped too! Thanks for the suggestion!
I’ve identified my deltoids and rhomboids (to a lesser degree) as weak points I’d like to work daily, do you have anything for these I can do with the same protocol as above- ideally with bands?
Thanks!
I do not. I recommend the bench, press, incline and dips/db work for stronger shoulders. For “rhomboids” I recommend perfecting your form on any kind of row movement. I’ve never heard of anyone having weak rhomboids though.
What I’m trying to say is that you need to work smarter and harder, not more.
Cool thanks! And last last one… anything for upper chest? I’m told it’s common (like I do) to have a small upper than lower chest if you’ve been focusing most on flat bench

For long term shoulder health these 3 exercises will help you out massively.
getting strong on this exercise
and this one should help as they train the muscle through a further range of motion.
