Shortcut To Size: Phase 1, Week 4, Day 25
This workout calls for 3-5 reps per set of heavy shoulder work. Warm up to your new weight slowly -- it's okay if you don't find the exact load on your first set. When you've got heavy objects overhead, it's best to play it safe until you're sure.
Track your progress, tune into your music, dominate your drop sets, and shock your shoulders with this powerful session.

Definitely had to switch to barbell shrugs this round. Not nearly enough weight with dumbbells.

Yep Barbell shrugs are the way to go. 150 dumbells aren't enough weight for me. I managed 435 lbs on the barbell today. I really enjoy this program. Looking forward to next weeks higher reps and lighter weight.

Ditto...I use the 110 dumbbell shrugs for warmup. Loaded up a cool 385 the other day and went to town. I love shrugs. Although, when the weight gets super heavy, it's hard to tell if you are even moving much lol.

By the sound of it you may have an impingement or something that is inhibiting you from performing these moves correctly. Get somebody thats qualified and experienced to check your form for deficiencies. Other than that I'd see a specialist to see what your problem could be. But if an exercise hurts (the bad kind if hurt) stop doing it and seek alternatives rather than risking serious long term damage.
