    Arr ez bar front raise and incline press should crush front delts very nicely. Its weird that someone with a strong press has a trouble front delt. Mine are in no means big but they aren't bad and my press isn't very good. Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2

    I'm surprised his front delts are even an issue.  They are rarely a problem from all the pressing people do.  Though I know many have a problem with there front delts being undeveloped relative to their chest, which is just an aesthetic issue.

    Exactly, I also see the opposite aswell, big tris and front delts with a teeny little chest.

    My traps are developed very nicely maybe they dwarf my shoulder a little I dunno. I've noticed good growth in the front delts just not as much as other areas. I'm my biggest critic I guess.

    That's pretty much my physique.  Pretty much the result of a lot of benching with little to no direct chest work.  My chest is stubborn, but admittingly I do not put much effort into it.  It just isn't a powerlifting muscle.

    My stubborn areas I'd say are the forearms and front delts. Suggestions?

    Depends what you mean by forearms. Flexors? Brachioradialis? Both? 20+ rep heavy forearm curls done Larry Scott style actually work really well for the forearm flexors. Heavy hammer curls should be plenty for the Brachioradialis with maybe some lighter pause/hold work as well. Could buy some fat grips to incorporate into your arm training/pressing.

    I'd say both. I will up the work once my elbow is completely healed if not then ill still kick the shit out of my arms and self medicate at home

    I second the fat grips. Although I'd recommend going with the grip4orce brand. They are made with a gap so you have to squeeze them closed while you do the exercise. I've also noticed that when I use them with pressing movements I have less pain in my shoulders and elbows.
