    In for advice because this is also my weak point despite routinely hitting shoulders. :pensive:

    I also have an issue with getting my shoulders to properly contract. I have found doing the "bro" sort of one arm leaning lateral raise, has really helped. Never letting the dumbbell reach you side, sort of keeping it out at about 30 degree angle from the start.

    Also, I think your shoulders are pretty big man. The leaner you get, the more of a 3D look your shoulders will have. Make sure your expectations are not based off what other guys on gear look like, because shoulders and traps go crazy for those guys.

    Using overhead barbell press, lateral raises and band raises are when I saw the most progress with my shoulders.

    I agree that losing body fat would likely make your shoulders look more like what you want. You appear to have good muscle mass.

    I follow Derek Weida (Derek Weida BTS) and Jeff Cavaliere (ATHLEAN-X) on YouTube. Jeff does a great job of shooting from multiple angles and stresses the perfection of form on each exercise.
