I hope this will help give you an idea of what a strength training routine looks like. In case you're wondering, I don't really focus specifically on shoulders, partly because you use your shoulders for almost every upper body exercise and also because, due to my surgery, I lost some of my ROM and posture on my left side so I do not want to do any overhead heavy lifting without correct form because this could lead to injury!
