are high reps low weight for shoulders a broscience meme?
or, are shoulders worked in the same manner as other muscle groups?
I want to work on greater shoulder/bicep or tricep definition.

The shoulder is a very small muscle and people generally start off with a very low weight. Buuuut muscles are muscles and low weight - high rep/ high weight - low rep will work that muscle just like any other muscle group.

High weight low rep will stimulate shoulder hypertrophy?
>>
>>34937985
Why not hitting 5x5 on a military barbell press and get an additional 3x10/3x12 excercise e.g. lateral raise?
So you hit them for strenght and try to progress there and add a hypertrophy excercise to fully burn out the muscle.

To effectively build muscle without exogenous substances is to stimulate muscle protein synthesis with a rep range of 6-12 reps for maximum natty gains. This applies for all muscles, no muscle is different from another. If you train with high reps, you will still build muscle although slower. The most effective way to build any sort of muscle is to train with heavy weight in a 6-12 rep range multiple times per week.

This is retarded. You absolutely 100% do not need to burn out a muscle for it to grow. It is way more beneficial to get a good stimulus every 2 days without completely destroying the muscle.

Full Body 3-4x per week or 2 Day splits 4 days per week are the most effective approaches to building muscle as a natty lifter.

>>34938107
Two excercises are far away from completely destroying the muscle.

Do we only have beginners on /fit/ or what?
>>
>>34937944
It's been proven multiple times that all rep ranges yield the same hypertrophy, within reason (5-25 reps).

What are you on about?

Wrong, wrong, and more wrong.
>>
>>34938163
Still only two excercises.
But you seem like a beginner, so you can get your muscle to grow with just one excercise ;)

I think high reps low weight is in fact better for every muscle group.

People who use the 'prove me wrong, protip you can't'-meme are always trolling

Prove me wrong.

These color groups are poorly chosen.

Just lift. Train hard.

That is a correct statement.

All you really need are arnold's and shoulder raises 2x a week, 8-12 reps
And add weight every month
Shoulders will easily come
