Jeff is God! Had the first shoulder problem for the last 3+ years, thought I was going to be disabled for life as it wasn't going away and kept getting worse, been doing my own exercises for a month and although I still have some pain I can feel the problem slowly going away, now iv seen this video and actually know what problem IV got, I can actually follow a set of safer exercises and not worry about causing any more damage 💪

[@fatnaken]

I'm 43 and haven't been able to perform a flat bench rep without excruciating pain for the last 25 years. Today I went through an entire chest workout with zero pain following your advice. I can't put into words what this means to me. I've had doctors tell me I needed surgery to repair my shoulder issue. I have bulked up multiple times just to see it waste away due to reoccurring shoulder pain. Jeff you are not only a master at what you do, but the fact that you share what you know is incredible and I am forever in your debt.

[@BoostFreaks]

I have had AC joint problems for as long as I can remember (along with some recent lower back issues from several years ago). Most doctors will say don't train at all which will in turn make you even weaker. Using Jeff's tips and tricks I can now train safely and I haven't got any single form injury for a year and half since I've been following him. Shoulders and lower back are feeling great and I'm in my best shape ever. For shoulder pain especially during lifting, warm up is critical and you need to apply fixes that are in line with your problems.

[@datpspguy]

The fact that he was breaking this all down and the pain you'd experience in each motion so effortless just makes me realize how much of an expert he is. Been dealing with not being able to bench for years after my shoulder issue so glad that I have some alternate ways to support chest day.

[@mash8349]

philip garrett i have found sort of a good solution: do a longer than usual proper warm up. Push ups, light weight shoulder press, other shoulder excersizes and then start lifting. Still, if you lift heavy like me at 315 for 8 reps, you'll feel it. :( it just gets reduced. It's on the top of my shoulder where the bone is, and inside. Top physically makes me weaker and unable to lift. Inside just burns like the pinching thing jeff said

[@alonzowallace6649]

Ice down after you work those shoulders and then add heat for the healing process. Just watch the pro athletes after they train. Ice for swelling and the heat for healing . Ice is always first thought.

[@swapnilm9774]

315 for 8 reps? How long did it take you to get to that stats?

Update6 months and I'm still loving this bench. kzbin.infoUgkxo_64lVTGMk7y4aXTPxPOcQ3YTLyQ6kYV I use it almost daily. I've gotten used to the small wobble and it's no problem at all. Love the storage, it folds right next to my weight set in the garage and hardly takes any space. I wish the covering material was a little bit tougher. I have a feeling that in a couple years it'll tear, but the bench is very well priced that I would just buy a new one.3 month usage review. Awesome bench for someone looking for compactness and storage. I did have to drill a couple holes to adjust my preferred seating position and leg bar position but that's only due to my personal preference. It's very sturdy for normal workouts, but for anyone going above 100# dumbbell press it wobbles ever so slightly. I would probably go with a fixed bench if that's the case. That being said i can accomplish 99% of my normal gym workout with this setup. Very happy with the purchase.

[@ToddClattenburg]

Jeff, I am a mid-40s guy, who did a bunch of weightlifting 15-20-25yrs ago, but after having my kids, life happened, and I got out of it. With the pandemic and working from home, I cleaned up a spare room in the basement and started setting up my home gym and then slowly started making some progress. I lost a bunch of weight (30+lbs), was eating better, drinking less, feeling better, and I really started building some momentum. Anyway - about 8 weeks ago, I started getting some shoulder pain and it kicked my ass - losing my momentum "caused" me to start regressing back into my old bad habits (it's amazing how fast that happens). I watched this video a few weeks ago, and you've really turned me around. Your positive attitude about working around issues like mine was so inspiring, and so necessary. I've been following your guidance and I'm already starting to feel the difference, and I can sleep better at night because my shoulders aren't hurting. I'm not sure if you read these comments but I really had to say thanks.

[@johnnutt1323]

I was struggling with horrible shoulder pain for awhile to the point where I couldn’t even bench and my shoulders would throb in pain if I was just sitting down. I realized it was due to the fact that my chest and back muscles were not proportional because my chest muscles were bigger than my back (specifically my traps). This was causing a lot of strain on my shoulder tendons. Once I found that out I really focused on building my back by doing a lot of hex bar deadlifts and weighted rows. After a month or two of that my shoulder pain was practically cured and I could bench and raise my arms without any pain. I hope this helps some of you out there struggling with the same problem I was.

I'm 69 and have some arthritis and bursitis in my shoulder. In the past I would get popping and grinding when I do shoulder and bench presses, so I had quit doing them. My shoulder doc said there was nothing I could do about it. I watched this video and made changes per Jeff's instructions and also adding some shoulder warm ups. I started very light to build my shoulders up and get my form right. I am now not hesitant to do them. When I do hear any grinding I come back to this video as a reminder to get my form back. My shoulder doctor should watch this video.

MunchNCrunch1 i dont remember that, but he does do a video where he even demonstrates that flexing your glutes will prevent power leaks and allow you to ohp more weight

[@SteelBlueVision]

What he did say was to push into the ground with your feet as you do an overhead press for more power. Squeezing your glutes and slightly arching your back helps as well. You know what else helps? Say the word "Power" to yourself at the start of the movement to get past the sticking point and really give it some power. You don't have to scream it or even vocalize it - you can whisper it. I bet that will add a rep or two to your OHP. Reply here or upvote this comment if it works for you on the next shoulder day.

I am now only 155# (at 5'8") and trying to regain some strength and body mass. All of your videos are instructive in the RIGHT way to excersize for gain,but THIS one will really help me to keep from causing more shoulder pain. Thank you very much.

[@jimmytmccabe]

Jeff, I am a 47 year old disabled veteran, and have been training most of my life in some form or another. I pulled a pec muscle over a year ago at the insertion point where the tendon and muscle meet from doing sets of 280 lbs. bench press: while taking creatine, while cutting (eating insufficiently), and with little rest between heavy days. Two friends (one nurse, 1 with a degree in exercise physiology) insisted that I "didn't have a pulled tendon," but rather "just a pulled muscle." They insisted that it would eventually "grow back." After a year, it didn't heal. I had it looked at by an orthopedic surgeon who performed an ultrasound. He told me the muscle was pulled where the tendon and the muscle adjoin. He advised against a surgery at that point (yet admitted that treatments for this far after injury were "beyond his expertise"). I couldn't do pull-ups at all for a while (I used to do 50 on my back days previously- but can now do 3 sets of 5 with pain), can now do pushups (in smaller sets), and have used the chest press in high reps/low weight to improve my diminished chest strength. More recently, I went to a sports doctor who specializes in these surgeries. The proposed plan is to use a tendon from a cadaver to reattach the unattached tendon. QUESTION: Can you share any case histories about people who have done similar surgeries after having endured the initial injury a while back? I wanted a tendon graph taken from my Achilles tendon, but this particular doctor stated, "There really isn't a tendon in your body suitable to replace the one that needs to be graphed." NOTE: IF YOU HELP ME WITH THIS, I WILL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL.

After I made ton of research, some training experience and after watching this video again a years later it made sense for every word that Jeff said. When it comes to health and if you can't ask a doctor, make some research, try it and most of all listen to your body if it creates pain (more than 2-3 out of 10) stop what you are doing and try to find why does it feel that way. After many tries and errors you will feel much confident on what to do with your problem. Keep going guys.

I have found your channel so valuable as you show proper form so clearly and carefully for every exercise!

[@soccerandhockey27]

Thank you jeff! This has been the reason i quit the gym 4 years ago (+ new work and other reasons also). Now i started to hit the gym and i still felt that pain in my shoulder, but thanks to your videos i am being able to train way smarter and most importantly, not to feel that pain!

[@frankrosemond3073]

Thank you, Jeff, for breaking down shoulder pain in simple terms.

[@clarkkent1942]

My shoulder was in ribbons until I watched this video and applied your modifications to my workout, it's made a huge difference already to me in a major positive way, God bless you from Dublin Ireland.

[@thatnewfisher9546]

I wish I had seen these 2 years ago before I totally tore my labrum, might’ve been able to continue playing football, everyone just told me to push through my pain at the time.

[@advaitgogte6385]

Ohh that's bad! How's your shoulder now? Can you still bench?

[@zgjfinance2796]

Yah I have lifelong kidney issues from ‘pushing myself’ because of someone telling me to. Never risk your health

[@---xi7ev]

i think i’ve torn mine😡

[@hugopereira6474]

With out any doubt, the best channel on KZbin regarding the subject. May this channel prosper. big thanks man

Jeff! Save me from my AC Joint injury!

[@rickyharter8188]

09:46 only Jeff Cavalier can make up a word, 'un-hammer curl' and it still be legit! Love this guys stuff; so helpful!

[@Illusion_effect]

Only you can makr up a word 'still be legit'

[@Illusion_effect]

hahaha xd

[@JasonVorce]

I would remind everyone that ALL words are made up. Just saying

[@Master_Chief_532]

I recently developed shoulder pain on the ac joint. I evaluated each of my workout to find out what went wrong, but was unable to find the real cause of the injury. Thanks to this video now I know exactly what was the triggering point of the injury. I used to target my lower ribs during bench press, which for some reason felt more comfortable for me, and i felt much stronger as well. And Thats exactly when I started noticing mild shoulder pain emerging. Now the pain is high enough for me to skip any heavy workouts, especially the pressing movements. I will definitely keep these points in mind the next time i bench after healing.

[@Walter940505]

Fix wrist pain next please

[@Walter940505]

I tried the method Jeff preaches (wrapping fingers on the other hand then twist) but I still feel it.

[@Handeee805]

Walter, Sheng Jie Teng Eat anti inflammatory foods and less inflammatory foods. Trust me, anti inflammatory foods are highly underrated. Also, when you worko ut, warm up and build up to the weight you will use and warm up slowly

[@Walter940505]

thanks danny appreciate the advice. I hurt it recently when I was military pressing; missed the rack after my last rep. but the pain feels like when i go heavy on cheating barbell curls, pronation and supination is a b*tch. but will definitely let it rest for a while before easing back into my working weights. for now, deadlifts and squats!

[@fernandoaugustoferreiragom3275]

Man, 10 years of pain on my shouders. Now, here, a understand what type and why a have this pain. THANK YOU.

[@kevinkestler4375]

Once again, no surprise, one of the best short vids on the mechanics of a muscle joint interaction. After watching dozens of PT vids on shoulder pain, this vid is giving me a deeper look into opening up the joint and pushing through the discomfort with some weight in good position and safely. Thank you Jeff!

[@issykali_inc]

JEFF please do a muscle imbalance video again!!

[@ivantsoi17]

kaligisee agree , i only do bodyweight workout , and my right lat is bigger than my left lat😢

[@reynbear1]

I believe Jeff has at least one video in the archives that talks about imbalance.

[@thrashfuckenhard]

This dude is like a damn dream come true for weight lifters with prior injuries, I broke my back, two knee surgeries and all kinds of shoulder pain and countless other injuries and problems from my time as a heavy machine gunner in the infantry, and watching his videos has helped me understand my body and how to work around it and how to get better far better than any damn military or va doctor has ever pretended to try. Thanks to this video, I think i finally understand whats wrong with my shoulder and have found one thing ive been doing that makes it worse, how to avoid it and also how to make my problem at least a little bit better from now on. So thanks Jeff! You fuckin rock dude

[@Oktozay]

Thank you for your service 🤟🏽

[@basedneeble7350]

[@danielesteves3435]

I never stop learning from you. This is exactly what I need. I can’t definitely see this relieving my shoulder pain. Thank you Jeff

[@mdrouin6306]

Mike from Elk Grove California age 63. Crunch Fitness Elk Grove California. So happy to see someone address this issue. Several years ago due to a work related injury I tore the right bicep tendant in my shoulder. Til this day the shoulder still catches, but I continue to stretch, especially on shoulder workout days, and when I come home place a heating pad on both shoulders. Tiday I'm physically challenged, my entire spine is literally being held up and together by metal plates, rods, brackets screwed into each vertebrae, Thoracic T4-T12, and hardware in Cervical and Lumbar. At 32 I was a former bodybuilder and could Flat Bench Press 325 lbs. Today I can only Decline Bench Press, but get this, 30 years later and one year after my final 5th major spinal surgery I set a New Record for my age and weight class Decline Bench Pressing 325 lbs on January 30, 2022. Its posted on KZbin as "325 lb Decline Bench Press Age 63 Wt 189" Physically Challenged, I'm stronger today at 63 than I was at 32. Im currently taking the ISSA online course for Personal Trainer. Thank you for your information. Respectfully Michael Drouin

[@nameofdane]

Thanks Jeff! I’m just getting back into working out, and about a month in seems to be the point where I’m realizing the shoulder dislocations I had when I was young are still very much there. Your focus on rotator cuff and general shoulder mechanics is really helping me figure out some ways to start rehabbing those joints so that I can do exercises like the military press (by far the most humbling experience for me at the gym) without it feeling wrong and like I’m fighting my own body just to perform the motion. It’s been an enlightenment to feel all the ways that my strength in an exercise has so much more to do with how large the muscle is.

[@jevongrinner6396]

Amazing brother you've saved my shoulder!! Thank you

[@ProducerSphere]

Jeff you have literally just saved my life. This fixed my shoulder problems virtually immediately as it highlighted a small issue with my form. THANK YOU.

[@iwantlee9510]

I trained chest this morning. Every single exercise I did felt bad in my shoulder. The only thing I can do completely without any pain is push-ups, but I don't do push-ups. I'll give DB floor press a go. I'll do only floor press and push-ups the coming month, along with some rotator cuff exercises, and see if the pain goes away.

[@user-gi6zj8um6t]

And did you notice any difference? Planning on joining a gym again, but I'm a little hesitant due to my history of shoulder issues. Jeff gives me hope though lol

[@chaoticchargewars]

Thank you. Im in my teen years and I was having this problem for a while. My right side is completely torn and its great to ease the pain

[@KillianDefaoite]

Jeff. I am a powerlifter who has been dealing with some issues regarding the bench press for the last 4 months. This video is an absolute godsend. Thank you so much.

[@mlpreiss]

I wish I could like this video multiple times. What a great reference video!

[@jakesparrow5716]

I think you might have just pin pointed exactly how I've picked up my AC injury and how to combat it. 💪

[@subhashisbhowmik7]

Floor press , externally rotated dumbell chest press, bench press or chest press with lowered traps and externally rotated and down shoulders thank you Jeff

[@bent_life9865]

Thanks so much for this one. Been having AC issues for a while and looking for a safe work around!!

[@Loz800]

Unbelievably helpful video mate...haven’t been able to exercise consistently for 4 years due to a shoulder joint injury. Feeling optimistic about being able to regain fitness and put on muscle for the first time in ages thanks to this explanation and most importantly solutions.

[@gazrowan]

I’ve had impingement and shoulder pain for years. Had an arthroscopic subcromal decompression years ago but the pain has returned. Chest is by far the worst and lat pull downs. Opening up the bursa is the best way for me to deal with my pain and these videos really help! Thank you

[@hightimesfriday]

You're the best. Thanks for all the work you do. You fixed my tennis elbow and now hopefully you can fix my shoulder pain!

[@fernie181]

I just starting getting Into powerlifting again after not lifting for 3 years and my lifts arent as bad as they should be. But I'm having trouble with my left labrum and It happened out of no where I was benching and it felt tight and not right with just 135lb on the bar. I just really hope I can bench again it was my most impressive lift and I need to bench to compete. Praying it heels 100% and I dont need surgery. Btw these are my old lift bench-355/squat-505/deadlift-550 weighing 225 New lifts are bench-305/ squat-435/ deadlift-495 weighing 260 3 years later

[@tonya.4369]

I've had a bad cycling accident recently damaging ac joint and labrum. I have completed 6 weeks of P/T to regain some basic movement of the shoulder but have been looking for some safe manageable weight training exercises to strengthen shoulders and help with recovery. The in depth information provided here will be extremely helpful. Thank you Jeff for posting such a detailed explanation of possible problems of a complicated joint.

[@oudguitar]

This is exactly the info i wish i had 2 years ago, thanks so much for this info! Super helpful!

I have become seriously trap over activated due to less back workouts than presses, got a shoulder injury, checked this video and here you are, stating what I had discovered, I was trap over activated and that’s a problem, amazing to see such an excellent KZbinr providing information that is true and one can relate to in some cases, thank you!

Mate your a legend. I broke my collar bone and I was still having ac joint pain. This video is so succinct and covers so much. Really helped me to work through it

[@albertotorres5215]

I love you man, multiple sessions with physio and traumatologist and none of the exercises or explanations have understood my problem or made such sense as yours. Cant wait to get back to the gym and try this. Mine is both an acromion inflammation and tendonitis
