ya i know it sounds crazy, but i have always hit the delts w no problem until now. MY buddy always hits the glutes, n said he would show me exactly where, but u know how that goes waiting on friends , plus the pins i have are 1'' and he said better to use 1.5 so when i re stock ill get 1.5's.. i thought bout it a few times but just cant bring myself to do it, i guess i just gotta break the ice..lol
