I use to have pain in right for a long time from doing one set of incline barbell bench press, avoided that like the plague(been doing them again recently, medium weight, very careful on bottom). Haven't done any direct shoulder work in years. Occasion side laterals with light weight only going up 3/4. In my early days, my shoulders were too big for my arms, so I quit training them for a long time until my arms matched better. So not directly training them for a good portion of training days never cost me any sleep. Besides, the anterior and posterior heads get nailed on any kind of press for the chest and rows of any kind for back. Only one that really needs direct work is the medial head imho.
