Isolation exercises like raises are completely pointless unless your targeting the muscle. I do side/front laterals with 25 pounds, could I do more ? yeah, but what would be the point ? My objective is to burn my shoulders out so hard with presses that by the time I finish with raises 20 something pounds is plenty for complete failure by 10 reps. raises are "shaping" lifts, as much as I hate to use that word, your bread and butter should be overhead presses, heavy and hard.<br><b>References : </b><br> More weight at the sacrifice of form only makes sense in heavy compounds.
