mind you i’m no …
. The motion of bringing the weights from the front of the body to the sides (the first part of how the people you’re talking about do it) takes almost no force because of the angle your arms are at compared to your shoulder. In my opinion it would be better to always keep the muscle stimulated during the exercise and stop the weight at your sides.
mind you i’m no professional, but I think that it’s better to stop the weight at your side. I’m gonna try to explain it with some physics

like nickhex81 said the higher u go the more u feel it in ur traps, try stopping and holding for a sec or 2 when ur arms are parallel to the floor brugh, u should feel it now on the side delts. STIMULATION NOT ANNIALATION, go light and focus on form with out momentum. go heavy maybe once a month

does put pressure on the shoulders if doing them often cuzs all the other exercises that use the shoulders as well like benchpress, dips, and pullups. 2wice a week is alright. does not stunt growth though

Just curious. Does doing these often (not too) put on pressure to your shoulders and stun your growth?

@AceBean27, you …
@AceBean27, you tend to use your traps more when you go to high. focus on flexing your middle delts each rep.

Yeah its working the medial (middle) deltoids, shoulder presses work the anterior deltoids (front deltoids), rear deltoid raises work the posterior deltoids ( rear deltoids) and shoulder shrugs work the trapezius muscles and the back muscles as a synthesiser( muscles used to complete the motion,)
