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?

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.

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...

If you are consistently getting the same pain, visit a doctor that is familiar with sports injury. If you're already feeling pain by positioning your shoulders for pushing movements, then it could be something serious. But most of us here is not educated enough to really prescribe you with anything.

You should seek professional help that has the know how to assess your condition.

You can test it yourself with some help...

Weight lifting is part of most sports. A lot of them has great carry over to their performance in the sport. biggrin.gif

Seriously, get it looked up. Not just to get buff or not, think about it in the long run... do you want this injury to haunt you as you get older? Imagine not being to lift your arm up to scratch your head.......

Shoulder is very much on genetics . If you have a narrow clavicles with high traps peak ,you going to have a hard time to develop those canon deltoid muscles .Also the insertion play a big role .

Raise that actually hits the medial delts directly and raise > press

Look at Larry Scott you will understand how i mean .Larry scott was born narrow and high peak traps .if you also noticed ,Arnold have the sloopy look .Having a body structure like this will have a hard time to look broad and wide .But the good side ,we have good traps peak .

Myself did tonnes of raise

How do you do your raises? reps, sets, progression?
