=====
Today we are going to go through three exercises to help you fix up your AC joint pain. The acromioclavicular joint is the top bony part of your shoulder, most people can touch it pretty easily.
This joint, unlike most joints in the body, is only held together by ligaments. The thing with ligaments is they don't heal as quickly as muscles.
A minor muscle strain it could be healed up in up to 3 days, whereas a really minor ligament sprain can take up to two weeks or even longer to fully heal. So when we sprain our ligaments we've got to be aware of that fact and we've got to progress a little bit slower.
If you're working out, playing sports, wrestling with your buddies and you've sprained your AC joint, it's really important that you let it properly heal at first. That means no movements in the extreme ranges of motion overhead, across the body and behind you.
We want to minimize end range of motion in those movements because any end range of motion in those movements can potentially stretch out the ligaments of the AC joints a little bit more prolonging your healing time.
These 3 exercises for AC joint pain are going to help you keep the shoulder moving and start to re-educate the neuromuscular system for proper aligned movement patterns that's going to set you up for a lifetime of doing things that you love, whether it's lifting in the gym, playing any kind of sports, golf etc.

I've been in 2x weekly PT and seeing an Ortho for an AC joint injury for three months, and in less than two minutes this guy has told me more about what is going on, despite all of my questions at the doctor.... THANK YOU

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

I'm so glad that it helped!

[@nsrayfield]

Exactly why I search out more knowledgeable people . I'm older and even though I've told an Ortho I am very active and in intense sports, he told me "nah, no exercises, just rest". WTF? Once with ski knee injury and once with elbow tendonitis(whitewater kayaking) ...I got online and found what I needed to do for both injuries Thanks Precision Movement, for these shoulder injury exercises and info :-) :-) Yes, I play hard :-) But only these three injuries in 20 years of playing. Elbow and Knee 100% now, and I know my shoulder will be too

[@cathyworth4409]

Your ORTHO would be out of business if he/she showed you THESE EXERCISES. They NEED you to keep coming back.

[@shaquileoatmeal7365]

That's exactly why I would never do PT... I just don't have much faith in doctors. I got an MRI my shoulder and they're like "Oh everything looks great"... Paid a ton of money for them to tell me nothing. I assume PT would be the same.

Thanks so much for this video and the one of testing AC Joint dysfunction vs Impingement. I semi-recently fell and "caught" myself with my elbow and since have had minor shoulder pain that's lasted weeks. Based on most of the reading I had done, I was under the impression I was impinged. Based on how I feel after taking the test, leaning towards the AC joint being the problem, and doing a single session of these exercises I feel like this is the right track. Obviously I'll be continuing. I've liked and subbed. Keep up the good work dude, many many thanks for these valuable videos.

[@chrisrobinson2913]

A couple weeks ago finally saw a Physio for AC joint pain. This week was four weeks off BJJ. Your videos are exactly right in terms of where the pain is (the forward-rolled shoulder thing and across the chest, ouch-for me also just pushing my arm down to get something in my pocket would trigger it). I've started the three exercises, plus the three types of pushups from the other video, and especially with the band behind the back and the closer I get to the tenth second I can feel the ligaments burning. It's a good burn. Do you have any other strengthening exercises using bands? Thanks a lot for your help.

[@moniqueross3268]

OMG thank you so much for this clarity and helpful exercises. I’ve had to pay $100 to physical therapists to never understand what was wrong with my shoulder. They just generalized it’s a shoulder impingement. I’ve always explained I felt it in my front shoulder bone too. You honestly gave me to much relief to finally understand what is going on with my shoulder. Thank you so much for you amazing content! 😻

I've been suffering for months and months with pain in my rotator cuff muscles and extremely poor range of motion and can't do anything in the gym because of it.... did physical therapy for 6 months and haven't gotten better, and continue to do exercises to work on my serratus, rotator cuff, and stabilizer back muscles..... I'm scheduled to get an EMG with a neurologist... So upsetting and depressing that I can't do anything in the gym...

I can relate to you. I have been addicted to drugs for many years and finally weightlifting got me off of drugs and helped stay clean, actually it's the only thing that im interested in and is driving through my life without falling down to that shitty path again, but now that i have been year clean and been lifting about 10 months I have fucked up shoulder, can't do anything in the gym except legs i have been able to train... well for a while at least because now i'm starting to have hip impingement as well. Now im panicing that i have to stop lifting all together, the only thing that have helped me get my life back on track is being ripped away from me. Depressing and frustrating as fuck... Well no use to dwell on self pity, but to take this as a challenge and rehab my shoulder. I'm not giving up. I'm going to get back to lifting no matter what it takes.

I did these exercises yesterday and the muscle is aggravated. It's not painful as if I re-injured it, it's more of an aching feeling like after a workout. Should I continue doing these exercises or should I give some time between them to let the muscle acclimate? Thank you!

I injured mine about 4 weeks ago. Pretty mild, just strained the ligament, but push-ups are still out of the question for me. How did your recovery go? Are you fully healed now? Can you lift weights?

[@Majicalpepper]

@@alexhooker447 I can, but it's a little difficult. I didn't take great care of it during Christmas and New year's unfortunately, so it's still not fully healed. I did some lifting yesterday of things around the house, maybe 30-40 pounds head level, but it got aggravated. I probably over killed it because I haven't built up the muscle, just stretches. Up until yesterday, I've been going through phases of having to relax it for a few days after doing some good stretches. I'm not going hard, but I hope I'm doing it right. It's definitely better than it was two to three weeks ago.

Based on my description of how I injured it and the pain that his exercises were causing, I think he should have easily figured it out. Bad news: today he did something that really aggravated it so it's the worst it's ever been. Good news: that gave me enough info to start figuring out the cause. Thanks to your other video, I was able to rule out impingement and confirm AC Joint dysfunction. You are now my new PT and I am really excited to start the mending/rehab process. I really appreciate you!

Great to hear

Been to 2 different physical therapists over 2 years trying to fix my AC joint shoulder pain after a labrum tear surgery after a chest workout. I would get several large knots along my trap that pretty much lived there unless I used my massage gun to beat them out, but a deep pain always remained that my massage gun couldn't reach and no stretch or movement I did seemed to alleviate the pain. That very first workout, as soon as my forearm went down, I felt my scapula instantly flare out big time and knew something wasnt right.. As I trained my muscle mind connection to keep that scapula down as my arms went back and forth, it almost immediately lifted the deep pain I've had for over a year now. I am absolutely thankful for you making this video. Liked and subscribed. I will keep up with doing these exercises and hope a more permanent solution is in my future. 🙏

After Covid lockdowns, working from home, and food deliveries for 1.5 years I gained 20kg and developed ac joint pains I never had before. Lost 10kg and on my way back but the pain never left. This video is a godsend thank you subscribed

Happy to help and thanks for your support!

I actually completely torn my 3 ligaments in that joint and decided to go for the surgery. It was a complete success and now I got a piece of string holding my bones in the right place. Its been 3 months and I can function normally with no pain but still cant do explosive movements and overhead pulling & pressing. Thank you for this video, I still need a lot of rehab but hopefully it will be 100% by the end of summer

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Keep us posted on your progress :)

Years ago I took a spill on a skateboard. I never knew what damage was done specifically to my shoulder but the pain subsided and I was able to move and function normally until recently when the pain arose again. I realize now the problem and this is by far the most comprehensive and helpful video for recovery exercise instruction. Thank you for sharing. By the way I still love to skate and I look forward to "movement longevity".

Happy that you found us!
