Shoulder pumps, anyone get them?

[Izzman]

Just curious, as I have yet to know what a should pump feels like as I have never experienced one in my year and a half of lifting, anyone else? How bout a leg pump, havent had one of those too!

i too, have never felt them. just a nice pump/tightness in my traps

shoulders have only been tight.

i have, however, gotten that burning sensation in them. it's nice

I always feel some serious shoulder pumps when I do behind the neck barbell presses. As for traps, when I do super-heavy shrugs my neck gets tight and feels goood. gotto love pumps. legs too when I do squats, when walking feels very weird.

Upright rows give me shoulder pumps but I try to limit it's usage due to obvious problems with the movement...well at least for me

Leg pumps for me = jelly legs

My shoulders always get pumped whenever I do any chest work, direct shoulder work and power cleans / hang cleans.
Even bent over rows will give em a pump.

Try some static holds if you want to feel a pump. Does it for me, not sure if static holds ready do anything for me except getting a nice pump in my shoulders.

when walking feels very weird.

yeah, that "floating" feeling

shoulder pumps no...shoulder pain (the sharp weirdo good pain) yes... our coaches make us do 4 sets of 12 moving up on everything though, so i dunno if that matters

Try a set of like 50 reps in between your working sets, you will feel a pump.

My grip strength may suffer on shrugs but heavy Deads make my traps scream for days...

If you really want a pump (which you don't need...just feels good), try higher reps/more TUT. Just yesterday I did a set of upright rows with 120, one of the few upper body exercises I can push pretty hard at the moment. I think it was 24 reps with that, using a fairly wide grip and pretty strict. Tremendous delt pump, approaching painful!

Do the same thing with deep squats. Try to do your 20 RM for at least 25-30...your legs should be so pumped from that you'll have trouble locking your knees OR sitting down. The nausea should be fun, too

Try a super set of Dumbell shoulder presses + Lateral raises together I get killer shoulder pumps from them almost so bad my shoulders feel like they r gonna explode!

I really went for a pump today in Shlders...took a little heavy weight in incline lateral raises raised about half rep(all I could do) and partner would help me get a full rep.....I got the pump for sure!
