Hi ! Man i don't know why you are getting so low views, your content is just amazin

[SameerPrehistorica]

That's a good explanation as well as fast. I'm currently having this problem. I hope i would recover from it within a month.

I only have pain when I rotate the elbows in. When the elbows are flared out more 90 degrees, no pain.

My shoulder pain sets in when i focus on retracting and depressing my scapula, in both pushup, benchpress and dips. Shoulder pressing is totally fine though

[jtgarcia]

Hurts when I raise it up too. But only in certain positions. Push up wise the pain is so bad I struggle with one.

Kinda off topic but, about four and a half weeks ago, my clavicle started to hurt while I was benching. The doctor said it was a sprain. Haven't done any chest related workouts since and the pain vanished.

Tried doing push ups not too long ago, and the pain, though faint, returned.
Should I also stop doing pushups altogether?

I didn't feel pain during push-ups but a few seconds there was intense pain in both shoulders, the pain stopped when I started typing this, lasted a few minutes. This has never happened before 😭
Is this bad?

Where should I feel soreness after pushups? In my biceps or near the chest above the biceps, near the shoulder, but not really in that area if you get what I mean, like right near the armpit but above that

Left shoulder hurts when i get up on the push up for some reason

[Gentle_Rage]

My right shoulder got dislocated 15 years ago when I was a little kid, and now when I do push-ups I feel pain in the right shoulder but I never feel pain in the left one, what should I do? It’s killing because I love push-ups but this pain makes me hate it

Quick question
I have shoulder pain during pushups and dips, should i take time off the gym and rest or can i train(even if its with lighter weights ) . I want to know if the pain goes away after time or if ill have to face this my whole life 😶

[BAD_BOY]

I have a pain from push ups and pull ups right there. But i have no idea what you just said. What do i need to do again? Obviously I don’t turn my hands inward

[mlpb]

May I ask for help. I'm not necessarily weaker than other people my age, in fact I can lift relatively heavy objects, but I've always struggled with push-ups.

I tried adjusting my elbows and hand placement, and I even began with wall push-ups but the pain affects my shoulders before anything else, instead of my chest.

Could this be adjustment to an unfamiliar movement, or can this be mitigated through adjustments in form?

[manuelserrano]

Hey, when i do push ups i feel only one side of my pecs hurting, been doing push ups for three months now and never had this issue

[April-Oth]

My shoulders don't hurt but they pop when I do pushups is this bad?

[Hellfirek]

hey man, really thanks for the tips, like after i did 50 push up, i couldnt even wake up the next day, my shoulders wasnt even moving, it was alot of pain, thanks man

[mimithemeowmachine]

Just curious, my shoulders hurt now after doing inclined pushups, made sure shoulders are as close to my body as possible, hand just below chest when going down. Is my hand position wrong?
