Guys, ive been busting my ass in the gym trying to make these shoulders grow, but it seems as though i must be doing something wrong? i dont usually notice any soreness after most shoulder days like i do say legs or chest. i want that full rounded look from the front but nothing that a i do to isolate my delts seems to work? any suggestions? Could i be overtraining? Thanks

If you were over training you'll be making losses.

Whats you'r routine as is? Training shoulders you need to make more of an emphasis on form rather than weight.

Usdually you dont get as muc of a hurt the next day after doing deltoids. There much smaller then your legs and chest but form is a big part in all work outs.

Military press: 1 warmup 3x8 heavy
Upright rows: 3x6-8 heavy
Isolate delts (front,middle,rear with dumbells) 3x8-10 lighter weight, slower
Rear delt machine: 3x8-10

Suggestions?

Quit the 3xX crap. DOing 3 sets at the exact same weight means the 2 of the three were too light.

im going to disagree a little here. if you are using the same weight then I agree but if you are doing a certain weight to near failure and dropping weight to get same target range and then dropping again imo thats all good

Do more pressin movements like dumb-bell presses,militarys, arnolds. raises only really bring out the shape once the mass is built.

You can also go to the 10-12 rep range and see if they respond with that.See if you get a better pump.
I love to take a 45 lb plate and hold it straight out in front of you gripping it on each side.Dont lock your elbows then raise it all the way above your headgo back a little past the head then lowering back down slowly and smoothly.Do 12 of these then immediately grab the same weight by the top with both hands and do upright rows 12 of them.rest for a few secs and repeat do 3 sets.I gurantee a burn.Theis helps with mass and shape of the front delt
