It’s Chest Day & You Get Shoulder Pain!

[UnknownFlowz]

Thank you, I’ve been experiencing pain for the past couple of weeks, I’m going to implement this today

Hack: Use bigger (heavier) dumbbells so they touch your body before your shoulder goes too far back.

I’m still not completely solid yet but this man’s videos have exponentially improved my lifting experience

Also rear delt raises. A lot of people have front delts overpowering rear delts. Burn the crap out of your rear delts.

Thanks mate.... Can't wait to try it out

[NiteBurst]

This was my exact issue today, thank you for helping me figure it out

[MrShamless]

Throat sounds a bit sore, are you alright? You should do the McGill big 3 to remedy that

[davetown]

Just realised that im going to low to thank you so much for the advice definitely gonna try!

This contradicta all that stuff about dumbbell bench having the rom advantage over barbell because barbell hits your chest.

Oh whew I do the shoulder cue reflexively. I like to go low so I was worried for a sec!

[Gabriel-tjre]

Ive been doing this thinking it was better ironically

[rosemarietolentino]

Find the position best for each person.

please make a video on pec strain, it's rehab excercises and root cause of it, how to avoid it happen in future again.

Aaron, thx for the video. I made an interesting observation on myself. Year over year I performed much more overhead pressing than chest pressing and always had healthy shoulders. Because of some back issues I changed this for awhile and doing 30 degree incline DB pressing as the only heavy pressing 2 x a week, and no overheadwork. After 5 weeks I got pain in the side on the left upper arm, right in the area where the delts connect to the upper arm. It was getting worse over time and when I start pressing it felt like ligaments snapping. I could do my pressing and in the beginning it was only during exercise but then I felt it also on my rest days, not big pain but smaller pain when raising the left arm laterally. Soft tissue work did not help. Now I found when I do standing dumbbell pressing, only 3-4 sets with light dumbbells, the pain is going away, today first day no pain after only 2 times I practiced that. It’s like a miracle, always when I make some DB standing presses Its getting much much better. Just for my curiosity, what is the reason for that?

Same thing with weighted triceps dips. Got pain since this afternoon, I was going too low, though with a controlled movement..

Damn first shoulder pain on chest day gave me depression and smashed my morale I thought I m done forever

Please make full video on pec strains and tear please

[justincain]

If the issue is going too low, wouldn't you want to widen your grip?

[zaffranali]

How did you help him retract his shoulder blades? What exercises, stretches did you get the client to do?

[liamhowatt]

Wow now i know why my pushups are killing my shoulder
