My iron pumping has become a joke. I usually just wait for a rainy day when I can't ride, so I only do them about once every 5 or 6 days, and do them all at once -- at home! This includes no legs, and a laughable lat workout, invloving about 5 sets of chin-ups on the pergola

Hammer-grip shoulder press. good exercise. Pullups on the pergola.....lol!!!

If you want to hit the "middle" or lateral head of the delt specifically, use the good ol' lateral dumbell raise.
