-- Shoulder Impingement Exercises to AVOID --
Shoulder impingement is a rotator cuff related shoulder injury, which can really limit your ability to perform normal activities of daily living, let alone continue to train in the gym. In this video, we cover what shoulder impingement exercises to avoid (and how to modify them), so that you can break the cycle of shoulder impingement, and allow your painful rotator cuff tendons to settle down and recover. We’ll also share a bonus hack to help you reduce your shoulder impingement pain fast.

Excellent video. I abandoned upright rows long ago, and I've recently brought in the bench press grip and allowed the elbows to track very close to my torso - these adjustments helped a lot. Hanging from a pull-up bar seems to help create space in the shoulder as well. I'll be sure to limit the ROM on lateral raises - these seem to be quite aggravating. Thank you so much!

I can't bench press with a straight bar, but I now use a multi grip barbell but much lighter weight, I used to do press behind neck for shoulders but that and normal bench press is what might have caused my shoulder problems. I now only train with weights that doesn't cause me any pain and don't want to give up now that I'm nearly 70 years old.

Cuff tears are terrible and hard to treat. Even if you repair it, rehabilitation takes months and the repair is never as strong as the original. Lateral Raises >90 are not worth it. Also, you’re working your supraspinatus more than your deltoid at this point. This is a deep muscle you can’t really see and its tendon just isn’t designed to see such high tensile forces.

hang on a bar and your shoulders will be back in a few months if you have a tear and if you strengthen your rotator cuff after a tear by doing exercises alongside hanging you will be even better than before.

Consider dumbbell or kettlebell overhead press. They allow your shoulders more freedom than the barbell press. I can't do a barbell press because of internal shoulder impingement, but single arm kettlebell pressing works well. An added benefit is the extra core work you get since the body needs to stabilise differently when only one arm is lifting at a time.

Reverse grip bench press can also be helpful to those seeking to keep training while rehabbing their impingement. Powerlifting coaches tell trainees to keep their elbows as close to the ribcage as possible (relative to grip width) during the bench press. Obviously, we don't want to emulate geared lifters who use a super wide grip to reduce bar travel distance. When you're ready to resume the standard bench press, you could go consider going one finger narrower on the ring markers than you had been. It will demand more of your triceps to put up a big weight, but it might be a wise choice for your lifting longevity if your elbows are sound. Another common exercise I would avoid during a time of shoulder impingement is dips.
@nighthawk2
@nighthawk2 2 года назад
Why dips? I noticed I feel it the worst when doing them. Is it because it puts excessive pressure on your shoulders?
@clifflee54
@clifflee54 2 года назад
@@nighthawk2 Yeah. If you're leaning forward for more chest activation, it's basically the same motion as a bench press. Even just doing a vertical one for more of your triceps still is a reaching motion
@jonathanwyble4227
@jonathanwyble4227 Год назад
Dips are a highly effective assistance exercise for the bench press, but they are known to place a lot of stress on the shoulders. Push-ups using push-up bars will also place great stress on the shoulders. Decline pushups are very challenging but do not introduce the increased ROM that push-up bars do, so they may be a better choice when training through shoulder impingement. Push-ups, generally speaking, are helpful for maintaining healthy shoulders. One reason for this is that they work particular upper back stabilizer muscles which the bench press does not. Pectoral flyes are very risky even for healthy shoulders. If you insist on doing them once your impingement is gone, the pectoral fly is one movement best done with a machine (an exception to the rule) because it limits the ROM at the bottom of the movement. You asked about cable flyes, which have the advantage of controlled ROM but not the disadvantage of a fixed path like the "pec deck" has. I'm not a doctor or physical therapist, so I recommend you seek the opinion of yours for your shoulder impingement exercise selection. An external rotator cuff training program is essential for recovery and prevention.

Also doing reps below 90 doesn't count.. you can use those partial reps after you take a set to the failure and can't raise the dumbbells high enough then the reps can be of use otherwise it's not gonna work out.. stop spreading false information

you are ignorant mate. its good advice. close grip will lesson the angle of the shoulder abduction thus reduce the pressure on subaccrominal space and tendons in that space that are irritated only when the arm is at certain angle. close grip bench, close grip push ups will ofc use the delts and triceps more but the chest is still used aswell and its one way for someone with shoulde impingment to still be able to do some chest work that wont cause pn for rot cuff tendons. you cant be a physical therapist.
