How often do you train shoulders

[Prøphet]

Rn I’m doing 3 sets lateral raises to failure 2x a week to try and framemax

What do you guys do

 

[2cbees]

i do the same + shoulder press

What do you guys do

cut out a set and add a shoulder press set, 2x/wk is good
If you dont want to press, then do a fly. Learn how to do a front delt fly for the front delt

Is shoulder press worth it if I already bench cuz I thought they both work front delt

I’m mostly trying to build side delts tbh because my clavicles and hips are subhuman

I bench a lot, yes it works front delt, but chest/triceps more
I mean yeah if your frame is fucked then your frame is fucked. Trust me, as someone with massive side delts in comparison to their front, just train em both the same.

Same thing I do 2sets 2x week. 2sets lateral raises for side delts, 2 sets shoulder press for front delts, and 2 sets rear delt flys for rear delts.

stop going to failure, there isn’t enough muscle growth stimulus for it to be worth the fatigue. prioritize frequency with intensity to 0-2 rir, hop on fbeod or u/l/r for optimal muscle growth and lots of chances to train shoulders.

Same

I don’t do rear Delt flies cause I’m lazy tho

I decided Ima start working shoulders 3x a week now because my frame is so abysmal, shoulders are law

whenever you feel recovered, so it depends on what volume,intensity you do

if i were you id isolate the chest with a fly, generally isolate as many muscles as possible

Really? I thought failure is important for hypertrophy more than lots of volume

Yes you are correct but a lot of people that are not familiar with weights or haven’t been lifting long enough don’t how many rir they’ve got left and end up overestimating or underestimating their rir which makes things inconsistent so I think it’s easier for a lot of people to just train to failure but you are right 0-2 rir has similar results as going to failure but a lot less fatiguing but as I said a lot people fuck up their rir.

 

[kramog]

do overhead press as well

 

[xdam]

skip legs do shoulders twice a week

 

[copeuntilidie]

yeah if you’re not having fun training then there’s no point you’ll just burn out later

 

[m0ss26]

I do 6 sets of shoulder press and 3 sets of side lat raises every week

1 RIR on all

frequency and volume are not the same, i see where you’re coming from tho. you need high intensity, low volume per ses, but high frequency (go to the gym more per week) so you can hit more top sets + less atrophy triggering

Oh and also I hit them every other day

Ohh that makes sense. Yea I’m starting to do shoulders 3x a week now I see wat you mean

Yea legs are cope especially for a manlet like me so my split is kinda weird I just do push pull rest push pull rest (add shoulders every other day regardless)
