as per topic, how do i get big and round shoulder if i have shoulder problem?(Ball joint not smooth enough to move)

i am struggling even with a 4kg dumbbell doing raises. Be it front or side or whatsoever.

is there any way i can train my shoulder without feeling my shoulder gonna pop off?

depends on your weight. but def need to lift heavier (15-20lbs) do 3 sets (8-10reps per set) but increase 5lbs for each set.

OHP/Dumbbell Press 75+Kg, lateral raise heavy ass weight, and pull real crazy weight for reps.

3+ years of perfect training and nutrition.

er...i think mine is not related to not strong enough. as per said, i have problem with a 4 kg also.

its my shoulder. its bad. the joint at that shoulder cannot move freely@smoothly. so i cant take heavy. unless i go for surgery and smoothen out that joint.

no other method other than going under the knife?

All u need to do is by doing pressing movement and lateral raises. Don't forget ur rear delts too. OP don't follow that armesh guy bcs he's doing OHP on smith machine srs and don't even have round shoulders on his skinny body.

do some proper warm up.

start very* light, raise are naturally hard to do, so its normal. even some stronger guy are grinding to front/side raise a 10 kg dumbbell.

consult your physiotherapist on your joint problem.

dont force yourself

You'll have to get mad strong like how I said... if there something hindering you you'll have to solve it so you can continue getting stronger.

Warm up properly. Whatever movement you do it has to feel natural. If it doesn't, something is wrong in the form. Train shoulders like every other muscles. Becareful because shoulder injuries keep you away from lots of your other lifts including back squat.

You are funny when you start to put numbers in your sentence. Like you have done it before. Have you?

i kenot use machine[s] for doing shoulders. Any fixed movement = pain.
thats why i cant even work on a barbell. only dumb bell. To adjust the shoulder.


the doctor did ask me to go for physio. But he told me, if it dun get fixed in TWO weeks, u kena go under the knife.
i thought like wth?2 weeks only to fix?sure must be some scamming going on.

*I did x ray, mri, several doc sessions, and pain killers prescribed. The pain is still there. so i dun really believe the 2 weeks thingy



yea, now i do every other things, then do some light side raises every now and then. max also 4kg per side only.
hoping it will grow sooner or later. sighhhh

Get a second opinion. Always go for a second opinion whenever doc says you need to go under knife.

i tried the other doctor opposite to him(specialist too), he even hebat.
we cant see wats wrong from the mri report. But first u go to physio(recommends me somewhere outside from hospital), then if kenot, come back again.
we will drill a hole at your shoulder, put in a camera and see whats wrong. Suspect your nerves is being pressed somewhere.

wtf????macam beli lottery itu macam!

In the following order:

1. Address the main concern here, the pain in your shoulder.
2. Consult a physiotherapist regarding your shoulder.
3. Follow the advice of your physiotherapist.
4. Once you are pain free, proceed to work on big and round shoulders with proper advice.

My experience:
1. Pain in my left shoulder during lifting weights. Even if I sleep on my left side, there's a pain.
2. Consulted a physiotherapist. Good news, no tear(s) in the shoulder. Bad news, I have weak rear shoulder muscles.
3. Followed the training program, mainly using resistance bands and body weight exercises. It took me around one (1) year to be pain free. Unfortunately, I do have other discomforts and niggles in my body due to previous sports injuries. On top of that I travel 6-8 months per year for work, so at times I have limited access to the gym or proper equipment.

During my recovery (I still do now) I pack resistance bands in my luggage when I travel , which are light weight and doesn't take up luggage space. Example of a resistance band:

Do note, I've omitted specific medical or human anatomy terms mentioned by my physiotherapist because I'm not certified in this field. I'm only a patient and my understanding is from a patient's understanding and interpretation.

Regards.

If you're a beginner, you wanna go very light on lateral raises. You may think that 4KG is very light (which is true for some people) but it could be too heavy for some. I used to do lateral raises with 5KG dumbbell at home and I injured my rotator cuff.

I need to lay off that movement for a long long time and did a lot of strengthening movements. I did face pulls, shoulder internal and external rotations. These movements will strengthen your rotator cuffs. At least it did for my case. I'm now doing one arm 14kg leaning lateral raises for reps.



So stop doing weighted lateral raises for now and focus on strengthening your rotator cuffs first. Once you're strong enough then only start doing it.

Also, I read a some readings and some established programs did not include lateral raise as some believe that it doesn't really add mass. Most programs utilizes massive compound pushing movements as their staple exercise to add mass. Such as OHP/DB shoulder presses.

Also genetics lol.

Refer below for internal and external shoulder rotations.

nice advice!
tonite i will go to try out the movement and see if i can do it.

whats a face pull?

You injured your shoulder before?

i am not sure if i did injure them before.
but i noticed this way back in 200x. the pain rendered me useless. I cant drive my wira(mt).
i have to ask my friend to drive me around. but i just thought as some harmless sprained.
All these while it comes on and off.

until last year when i started my first gym session, only i knew my shoulder is terrible and something is not right.
since i wanted to build muscles, i went to see a specialist for the first time. and yes , i am fuked!

And for the strengthening movements that I mentioned, really try them with LIGHT weights. Best to try without any weights first. Then maybe 1kg or 2kg dumbbells...

Sounds pretty bad. I wouldn't lift weights at all until I get it fixed to be honest.

eh????this one i can do. no pain wor.
can go up to like 50kg without any discomfort. But, i cant do push up. the moment i position myself, the shoulder already pain. n oneed to go down also.


tats why i havent been working out the shoulders and its lagging way behind.


so i just avoid anything that give that pain.
