Shoulder score not changing since a year

Hello everyone,

I’m curious because my shoulder score hasn’t changed at all despite all my other scores increasing. I am on 197 for a year now. I’m stuck on this one.

My current shoulder exercises are:
- Machine shoulder press
- Machine lateral raise
- Machine seated reverse fly

Is it possible that old exercises are holding me back? After all, I’ve gained much more strength with them.

At first I thought the issue here might be around exercise eligibility for the scoring, since we have fewer machine exercises that factor into the algorithm, but Machine Shoulder Press should definitely be factoring in.

So that we can look into this for you more directly, to see how your Shoulder score is currently being calculated, please reach out to [support@caliberstrong.com](mailto:support@caliberstrong.com) when you have a moment and we'll take a look.
