shoulder exercises?

whats some good exercises for shoulder instablilty?

I have been doing external rotation with the band ,and on my side with a 10lb weight. and front and side raises.

is there any other REALLY go ones that will really work the rotator cuff/??

Because of baseball i have had rotator cuff problems, what i have done to strengthen them is take my 3 favorite shoulder excises and use 5 pound dumbbells. 5 pounds is the perfect weight for your rotator cuffs. Its to light to work your deltoids but anaught to work your rotator cuffs. So just take 3 basic dumbbell deltoids exercise and use 5’s.
Heres the simple program i fowled 3 times a week.

standing DB side laterals raises: 3 sets, 25 reps
Reverse Overhead DB Laterals: 3 sets, 25 reps
3 sets,25 reps

Sounds easy but it ain’t and it works very well
good luck hope it helps you out

    well if you want to bulk up the shoulder try doing shrugs (its the little 1-2 foot high metal thing with 2 handels and a horzontal bar on either end for weight) just pick it up an shrugg ur shoulders make sure u dont lift with your arms.
    if your tring to recover from pulling it or an injury try putting ice on it for 15 minutes then rest 15 minuters then u can put the ice again for 15 more minutes repeat. rows are good 2 although they mainly work the chest

    try to be more detailed i donbt knowif its an injhury or a muscle gain problem
