Thats a lot of stuff for delts, which get hit pretty hard on other days.

Heavy hammer shoulder press
Cable side delts
Dumbell front delts

After warm up I do 6 sets of 10-12 reps. I superset all three, so 6 tri-sets if you will.

Rear delts get hit on back day.

See avi for results

i haven't really trained shoulders in months. the other day i did a few sets of front, lateral, and rear raises with 5lb dumbbells and did about 20 reps per exercise but supersetted them all together. then i did 2-3 sets of light dumbbell shoulder press. shoulder injuries prevent me from going really hard with shoulder workouts but it feels great to rush some blood in there

i alternate each shoulder day my main presses so after warming up with front and side db raises I'll either do 5 sets db press or bb press followed by 5 sets hs press or single arm sm press. Warm up sets not counted. then i like to superset 2 different exercises for rear delts with upright rows. Toast.

Super Set
Side laterals: 3 sets of 10
Shrugs: 3 sets of 20

Like Bricks said, delts get hit hard with other movements so you don't really need much.

U guys need to try klokov presses if u haven't before. Destroys your shoulders.

I'm a huge OHP guy. I hit those gard and heavy. Single arm leaning side raises are my other go to shoulder movement.

10 min light warm up with dumbbells.

Seated Military press 5 sets 15,12,8,6,6
Standing Military press 3 sets 10,8,8
Bent over rear Dept rows 7 sets 15-20 reps each set. Done

never change the program. Basic and works for me.
Only do raises or rows when my elbows need a break and I personally don’t like them.

I should have mentioned my shoulder volume is increased temporarily as I’m out of training chest for two more weeks due to a strain so using this time to shock my shoulders and add more volume then back down once I’m back to hitting my chest normally
