How to train your Rear shoulders effectively

Training the Rear shoulders responds to both heavy compound work and high-volume isolation. A balanced session combines a primary compound press, pull or squat pattern with a focused isolation movement that builds shape and detail.

Aim for 10 to 20 hard sets per muscle group per week, split across 1 to 2 sessions. Beginners progress with bodyweight and dumbbells; intermediates benefit most from progressive overload on barbell and cable variants.
