On muscles like your lateral delts, getting the most direct time under tension is crucial. One approach is to beat your shoulders to death with set after set of regular rep after regular rep, put quite a bit of wear and tear on the quite delicate shoulders, and eventually develop an injury OR use isometric pauses (a pause of the peak of the muscle contraction) and slow eccentrics. Time under tension is CRITICAL for muscle growth.
Time under tension can be made up of only dozens and dozens of traditional reps or you can utilize these techniques to get more bang for your buck. If you already have high mileage or injuries on parts of your body, these techniques will allow you to continue training and improve your quality of life.
One of the worst thing you can do is to avoid training certain body parts because it hurts to do so the usual way you’ve been used to training them. This will only cause additional dysfunction, imbalances, and loses in strength or muscle size.
