Awesome! If you do not suffer from shoulder pain, do these anyway. Properly warm up! I never warmed up nor did anything like this in my younger days and now I suffer the consequences. If you know any young athletes who are serious about weight training or anyone who is in weight training period, please share this video and channel with them. Only those who were really into lifting HEAVY AF and now suffer from severe should pain know the true value in this information. Share this with everyone even if the person seems to appear like they know wtf they’re doing and look jack AF, share with them so they can avoid severe should pain in their future!
@@techboyyogi5556that’s the issue everyone wants it done right away. The problem has been created probably over years and you want it fixed in days. It will take weeks at best. Slow and controlled movements really focus on proper mechanics when doing them.
This channel is such a valuable resource! I do the Lock and McGill warmups all the time and feeling better than ever in mobility than ever before…at 44
Fantastic! I’m almost 68 and left shoulder is a bit weak. This is excellent to work on that issue. Thank you very much! Your vids are always so educational
Wow. I hurt my shoulder doing shoulder press at a super light weight and this instantly helped and now I can get back to my workout. Straight to the point and an amazing video
I had to take a break from a lot of activity when I had it. There is no fixing it, luckily I grew out of it but it’s some of the worst pain I’ve felt in my life. Couldn’t play soccer for more than like 10 minutes without it flaring up and then I was out of commission. Good luck bro ✌🏼
The older I get, the more I just make sure to incorporate all these stability movements into my weekly routine as preventative maintenance. Thanks for posting this video.
This is great, but it's a little unclear... is this a short term fix, or will the pain go away completely if I do these regularly. If so, how often is regular and how long on average for the pain to go away completely. Thank you!
Rotator cuff exercises rarely if ever resolve shoulder pain because the root cause lies in the thoracic spine. You cannot dissociate the shoulder from the thoracic spine.
@@mateusaugusto1812 I would love to elaborate but since I'm too lazy and not an authority on the subject, I will post a link to someone that is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Eod86jf54Jc.html
@@ADAPTATION7 the advice in that video is weak/a little odd. You are better off doing thoracic extensions and exercises that target the lower traps and serratus anterior
I really do believe that rear delt work helps a ton in shoulder rehabilitation/injury prevention. But it’s quite difficult to even target/access them if they are very underdeveloped. I feel like other muscle groups (upper traps) then completely overcompensate. Any suggestion for rear delt work for beginners?
Try hunching your shoulders forward and keep them forward when doing rear delt flys. It tends to work for me to keep the traps out of it. Also I find them much easier to target when i do rear delt flys with the humerus at a 45 degree angle rather than straight out from your body. Try it out and see if it helps, good luck!
This is literally my routine, plus the Lock 3 and some additional stuff. My rotator doesn't seem to be any better months later tho. Can't train chest/shoulders at all
hi. I did the exercise and find that the pain appears when I rotate out , not in. Is there an exercise for that ? The pain is not in my shoulder blades. For example, the pain is present when I wash my left shoulder ( pain is on the right). Also, pain is not at the top of the joint, but the outside of it. It is sharp and doesn't affect my should blade. Thx
Had an injury 6 months ago (laying on my left side. Heard someone breaking in and I got up very quickly by pushing with my left arm). It still hurts when I put my arm overhead like you did However, my external rotation strength and flexibility is fine. Could it be something else?
Could be a stabilizer muscle or tendon. I'm just looking into that as a possibility myself. I can do things like overhead press on a machine without pain but when I use dumbells it's very painful and unstable. Cheers
I would say if you have pain in your shoulder do this as a warmup. It may decrease your performance, because these may seem like easy but really demanding especially in the beginning. After the pain is gone, which hopefully will happen, you could do these after training. I'm not an expert, but I had shoulder pain from years by playing waterpolo and lifting weights, and having been seeing a physiotherapist regularly, the pain went away. Nowadays I do the upper body mobilisation after legday, and legmobilisation after upper body day at the gym. With this I can ensure that mobilisation and the actual training won't interfere with each other.
I don't have shoulder pain but every time I do "overhead shoulder press" with a barbell my left shoulder suddenly hurts as if it's about to snap.. It only happens after 8reps or heavy weight and only in overhead shoulder press..
Been having shoulder for a few months. I tried the foam roller ext rotation. I can't rotate beyond 45 degrees with a 5lb dumbell. Should I start weight free?
I was training Muay Thai 14 months ago and I punched too hard my left clavicle and shoulder had a weird strong pain for a few seconds, since I have been suffering of pain, despite going to physical therapy for all this time they haven’t been able to help me, I keep training with the pain is bearable but I don’t want it to limit my training which is limiting me.
Anyone have tips or how can I find alternatives? In the XRay it seems to be fine, probably something is not perfectly aligned or I got some muscle pulling harder I don’t know, any help is appreciated.
I got pain shoulder left side after playing power twister, ahh what I've done! 😩.. should I'll try exercise with abs roller? I think it probably good right?
What if I have the opposite? Arms at sides, a push from inside my wrist and my pushing back to internal rotation causes pain in the front of my shoulder
@@user-iq5gu1ed9k yup it was my posterior deltoid. I can't engage it properly during any movement. My traps and chest compensate for it instead. Now i've been trying out Dr Aaron shoulder stability routine and i can see the improvement already. Thank for responding though.
The first excersise caused pain in the shoulder (rear delt). What now???? I had pain in my right shoulder which was then fixed with this excersise, but then I was using the same weight for the left shoulder and I had sharp pain while doing the exercise...
@squatuniversity, I had a rotator cuff issue which I fixed with the help of your exercises. Now, I don't experience any pain, but in my normal day movements, there's shoulder clicking/popping but no pain. Should I be concerned?
Are you tucking your elbows towards your sides or flaring them out? Do less weight and make sure your chests feels sore and not your shoulders. I went from doing knee push ups to full push ups, but I can barely do sets of 5 push-ups and it was making my wrists hurt so I went back to doing sets of 15 knee push ups and my chest was getting sore instead. If anything hurts or the muscle you are supposed to be hitting isn't the most sore, you're doing something wrong. Less weight and better form can help
I did pike push up and my left shoulder unable to do a single knee push up, something move in front shoulder and cause pain while i move my hand to upward⬆️ i thing its nurve that cause pain and lack of strength
