How I fixed Shoulder Pain & Imbalances (Follow Along Routine)

These are 3 exercises that helped me fix my shoulder pain, fix my muscle imbalances, and make my shoulders, shoulder blades, and rotator cuffs strong again!

2 advertising before starts a video of 7 minutes !?are You serious ! You have more than 700 k suscribers and you allow KZbin advertising ??? Maybe people do not know that youtubers have power to accept advertising or not on their channel. I can understand for a very small channel but you ... fed up, really fed up and unsubscribe even I am sure you do not care.

Adblock bro

[@Hazed_77]

Boohoo this free informative video makes me watch 60seconds of adverts.

[@Strengthside]

Hey sorry you feel that way! Maybe I can change your mind and get you back as a subscriber 😁. We have been putting out free KZbin videos every week for around 7 years! In the early days it was my side gig and I did it on the weekends. I’d say the video quality reflected this. As strength side and KZbin has become my full time job… more time and effort has gone into the videos. Upgrading cameras, hiring out editing, putting more time into the production… all this accumulates into higher video quality. Now of course unless you happen to have a trust fund… you can’t just make high quality free content without getting anything back in return. This comes in the form of advertising (less than you’d think) and offering services. We (and I’m sure many other youtubers) put all our earnings back into the business. So we can keep improving and making better valuable content. I believe this is what some people don’t understand. If you want your favorite KZbin creators to keep making amazing content then they need to make more money to free up time and resources. So while it’s inevitably annoying when you’re in the middle of a good video and it breaks into an advertisement, I remind myself that I’m happy this youtuber that I like is getting rewarded for their efforts. Value has to flow in both sides for the relationship to be sustained. For us to be able to lounge around and watch free content on our phones all day we should be able to wait through a 10-30 sec ad here and there. I’d argue that our “free content” society has created a sense of entitlement. Why do we deserve free content? But it’s also created empowerment for the creator. You have every right to disagree and unsubscribe and I have every right to monetize my videos. But maybe you could see it from the side of the creator? Going to pin this comment because I’m sure some people feel the same as you do! - Josh.

After 2 years of injuries and intensive learning about it, I'd like share these information on how to fix shoulder problems from all aspects.. hopefully it helps someone... Ideally u want to do all the five points together consistently 1️⃣ Get red of the inflammation: More Inflammation =pain= no heal It's caused regularly during exercises and recovery ✅Staying away from things that increase inflammations (exercises that increase the pain, stress, processed foods, sugars, fast food.. Ect) ✅ Doing things that reduces inflammation (Sleeping at night early,stay away from stress, ice baths/ cold showers, eating anti-inflammatory foods.... Ect) 2️⃣Restore balance around the shoulder joint by stretching and strengthening ✅Strech the tight muscles that pulls shoulder to the pinched position (this is a temporary fix to reduce pain and restore little range of motion , but it help alot) Strech Muscles such as (chest, lats, neck, upper traps, the posterior capsule, sometimes biceps.. . ) ✅Strech the acroacromial ligament and reshape the acromion arch with dead hang (shoulder width grip if possible) which increases the spase between bone and tendons, this is proven to reshape and helps solving impingement alot The acromion bone is shape narrower from our daily routines and to gain back the space under it we need to hang more often These videos demonstrate how it works kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHuQaYWHdtVmnrM kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnO7kGysbJlogqM kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHqWYWhnpdismNE Beware u shouldn't do the hanging if u can't left ur hand above ur shoulder level or if u have dislocation ⚠️Note about Streching ⚠️ stretching pain shouldn't exceed (4-6 out of 10) to avoid nerve problems ✅ Strengthen the oppose muscles (This is the real long term solution) Strengthen muscles thet pulls the shoulder joint to the opposite direction of tight muscles to gain back the balanced joint Muscles such as (rotator cuff muscles, rear deltoid) ✅Strengthen the muscles that stabilize the scapula ( to gain stability on the shoulder joint) Muscles such as (serratus anterior, lower and middle traps) ✅Strengthen other important muscles related to the shoulder stability Muscles such as ( core muscles) Note: Sometimes Tightness in an area around shoulder is caused from bad posture so fix that by doing posture routines and beware of ur posture all the time 3️⃣ Provide ur body the tools to heal -amino acids most important for anabolic and healing the body, great source is eggs.... And many other real foods - eating anti-inflammatory foods -magnesium helps muscle tightness .... Etc U get the idea, just eat a complete healthy diet to provide the tools to heal the body from the injury ASAP ⚠️ Note⚠️ the body needs to be in the anabolic state to recover, meaning u avoid all things such as stress, depression, lack of sleep, anger.... Ect 4️⃣good blood circulation Now, in order for delivering the nutrients to the injured areas efficiently U need a good blood circulation and flow especially on the injured muscles ✅Do daily cardio/walking.. Ect anything promotes blood circulation even for 10 minutes will make the difference ✅Move/ train the shoulders daily in the maximum range of motion that doesn't heart, this is very important ⚠️Note⚠️ never push though pain, small pain might be acceptable, if pain increases day by day stop it and reduce the Range of motion ✅Eating foods that promote circulation ✅Foam ruller, lacrosse ball, deep tissue massage, hand massage.... Ect all increase blood flow on the targeted area, just do it carefully after knowing how ✅Ice baths/ cold showers upgrades ur circulation for long term ✅Deep nosal breathing (nosal breathing helps creating nitric oxide which promotes circulation) 5️⃣ Consistency I can keep many other lines but these are the most important points in a nutshell. Search more on each point i mentioned to get more information. LET'S GET THROUGH THIS

[@FavioD7]

the best thing I've read today. It also applies for any injury really. I'm going through knee injury and this helps a lot

[@iliasdimas1992]

I am really grateful for your comment, I've been struggling with shoulder pain, cracking popping sounds also elbow pain, and wrist pain probably because of my stiff neck i will also work on my neck.if you have any tips for numbness in arms and shoulder pain plz share it with me

[@bobomomo3764]

I learned other stuff as well I'll share here, i collected amd summarize it hope it help u guys. If u find something need to be corrected please do it will help me as well since we are still learning The following nutritional advice will help improve all Osteoarthritis injuries (injury caused of wear and tear of joints and connective tissues in the joint ) i.e shoulder injuries and knee injuries. Key points will have a star ⭐ next to them. I'm still in progress to complete this note so don't mind any spelling errors XD ____________ Joints have connective tissue, and it's very common that they're involved in the injury, so it's important to strengthen and repair these connective tissues, along with prevention causes and strengthening the muscles that support and balance the joint as mentioned in the previous massage. 🟠Part 1 ( preventing the causes of damage in joints and connective tissues ) inflammation causes more damages to the joint tissues. inflammation increases from our bad diet selections that include : fast food, processed and GMO food we consume from the supermarket(cow milk, most peanut butters, pesticides in many foods , plant oils, sweets and sugar.. Etc) -Calcium and magnesium should be balanced, if calcium is higher more joints problems. -Low magnesium =more joints problems -sugars and lots of carb causes less minerals and vitamins in our body -stress burns many vitamins and minerals, it eats the body -fapping costs lots of essential nutrients, so stopping it completely for rehab going to help .... 🟠Part 2 - repairing the connective tissues of the joints [ Tendons, Ligaments and Cartilages ] : The repair require movements (blood flow/ load in them by exercising) + nutrition needed to rebuild + resting physically and mentally to allow the body to be in the anabolic state (healing state) The basic building blocks connective tissues are collagen fibers. Collagen = a protein contains repetitive sequence of amino acid, amino acids = proteins. ( ⭐Lysine, ⭐glycine and ⭐proline ) Are the most important amino acids that make collagen Knowing them is important so we can later search and know what foods that contains them. 🔘Tendons and ligaments : -are made around 85% collagen -have blood supply, but not much supply like muscle, so they get the needed nutrients(amino acids from protein sources) in blood if found and heal slowly ⭐-collagen have different types and all are important, but (Type I) mainly for tendons and ligaments 🔘 cartilage: -cartilage is avascular (doesn't contain blood vessels) it cannot receive nutrients via the bloodstream amd that's a big problem since it's hard to get repaired but there's a solution I'll share down below - there's a liquid around the knee cartilage (I'm not sure if that's the case in all cartilages in shoulders as well or not haven't reached that information yet), so this liquid lubricate the joint and feeds the cartilage to get repaired, the main substance that is needed for that is called Glucosamine. ⭐Glucosamine= more joint lubrication + fast cartilage repair -⭐chondroitin is another important substance that helps the cartilage ⭐-Type II collagen is a fibrillar collagen, and the main component of cartilage -Chicken collagen contains the chemicals chondroitin and glucosamine 🔘 Essential Vitamins and minerals for joints repair, take them from natural sources regularly : ⭐-vitamin D is crucial for joints, and it regulate the calcium as well ⭐-vitamin C, without it collagen won't be produced it's so important ⭐- cupper is so important for collagen production ⭐- zink ⭐-Magnesium is important When your body makes collagen, it combines amino acids - nutrients you get from eating protein-rich foods, like beef, chicken, fish, beans, eggs and dairy products. The process also requires vitamin C, zinc and copper. ⭐⭐⭐🔘 Foods that contains all the important joint nutritions: Mainly the protein sources of foods, especially.... - Under progress..... -...... -..... -..... -.... - 🔘 Supplements for osteoarthritic/ joints injuries : ⛔Remember never mix two or more contradicting supplements to avoid low absorbing and avoid mixing contradicting medicine pills with some supplements to avoid any dangerous side effects . Make sure u do ur research or ask ur doctor before taking any supplements. When taking vitamins supplements, it's ideal not to take them for too long (3 months max) to be safe and it's important to do blood tests and see the levels to avoid any problems. 🟢⭐Vitamin D3, magnesium, omega 3. All are important and They work together well and good to take them together if u have them in ur plan 🟢⭐Vitamin C + good collagen supplements: types 1 for ligament and tendons, skin bones and type 2 for cartilage 🟢⭐Glucosamine chondroitin supplements 🟢⭐MSM supplements (Hyaluronic acid) is good for joints and nice if exists in any of the supplements 🟢⭐curcumin supplements to reduce inflammation that damages the connective tissues (or basically consume turmeric regularly it contains curcumin in it) 🟢⭐ proteolytic enzymes supplements : for example (serrapeptase) to get red of the scar tissue in the joints ⛔I believe it could be dangerous if you take this with any food or supplement that soften the blood for example turmeric / garlic... Etc 🟠Part 3 (strengthening the connective tissues of the joints) : When we workout, muscles and nerves and bones get stronger faster than the other tissue we always neglect, and these weaker tissues start to suffer because of that Guess what tissues I'm taking about?? Yup, they are the (tendons, ligaments and cartilags) because of low blood flow in them Search about : tissue adaptability kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3a7nnqKh7eqo5I So what to do to strengthen them? ➡️During working out the muscle, it's key to include the following techniques in ur program to bridge and close the gap between muscle strength and connective tissue strength to prevent injuries ⭐⭐⭐▶️Tendons specific training : - low weight high reps around (30,50,70) the more reps the more blood flow = nutrients to tendons and ligaments = stronger faster ▶️Slow eccentric training ▶️ Progressive loading in exercises ▶️Isometric training

@@iliasdimas1992 Sorry to hear that, i went through nerve damage around my mid back area caused Numbness in my arm for more than a year. it happened after i did a strech during rehab and it was devastating so i feel u. Now with exercises and healthy diet and long time it's about 95% gone Numbness usually related to a nerve issues, might be a damaged or pinched nerve at the shoulder or neck area, nerves need ⭐vitamins b complex⭐ to speed up recovery if it's damaged . Also make sure u take vitamin D3 if ur not exposing ur self to the sun regularly, eating healthy vegetables, beets, lots of water and careful progressing exercising will help recovery. Regarding the elbow pain and wrist, i have no context about ur situation but if u workout and lift weights then it's likely coming from the way u grip the bar/dumbbells... Etc. It's not always the case but it's more likely. That pain means it's inflamed If ur holding the bar/dumbbell above the center of ur balm (meaning close to ur fingers) that will overuse and inflame tendons in ur elbow and cause pain, the wrist as well should be as straight as possible when lifting heavy as u know May i ask How did the nerve pain happen?

Josh, this could not have come at a more perfect time. I was just told by my chiropractor yesterday that I needed shoulder PT before I do any more lifting, or I'm going to do serious damage. Years of terrible posture along no curve in my neck has done damage. I'm 3 years in with doing bi-weekly chiropractic adjustments to restore the curve in my neck and posture is so much better now, but shoulders are still semi rounded from so many years of bad posture. It's a work in progress, but I end up with terrible pain and a migraine from my neck going out every time I work shoulders, so no more upper body for me for a bit and now to start incorporating these movements to strengthen my shoulder and get them healthy. Will be following more of your other similar videos on shoulders as well. Can't Thank You enough for all you do, you are appreciated! Blessings to you!

[@JoseSalazar-pl7mn]

What I have observed over the last few decades is that a lot of these exercises with bands, warm ups, yoga poses, etc.... are a complete waste of time...until you sustain a shoulder injury and then these become gold and help so much. I wish I would have known about all of these exercises 40 years ago....Actually, in 2014, I had a frozen shoulder. As a former athlete, I actually never even heard of a frozen shoulder. I began to thaw it out in 2019 and I have made so much progress, but I am still not at a 100%. I really appreciate all of these types of informative videos that I can implement immediately in my daily and weekly routines. All of you watching these types of videos and reading this feedback, I ask that you share these videos with all of the young HEALTHY athletes that you know as a proactive approach to their training programs. Thank you for taking the time to share with all of us. Take care, stay strong and God Bless!

Can I add (talking about the third, external rotation, band exercise) that if you put a tennis ball in between the working elbow and the body, and use your lats and pecs to squeeze the ball against your rib cage BEFORE you pull the band, you'll turn the deltoids off (technically you are *inhibiting* them by the squeezing action) and then all the force on the band will come from the two external rotator cuff muscles. This can be a game changer-you definitely will not be as strong with the deltoids out of the equation, but all the strengthening effects will be in the external rotators, and that's what you want.

Great video! I just recently discovered your channel. I've been dealing with a rotator cuff impingement for a long time. A "shoulder specialist" told me I need surgery. Thanks, but no thanks! I gotta say these exercises seem to help. I'm going to continue doing them on regular bases and hope it'll fix the issue for good. If not, I'm going to gain much better shoulder mobility.

Damn! The Way your toned with flex, that's a motivator for me to work out! What an awesome controle and understanding of your muscles and body

Thank you!!! I have a very difficult time doing squats because of shoulder mobility. I can currently only do high bar squat. I'm going to try doing this for a while at work. I will get back to you with results.

I can finally scratch my opposite shoulder without pain. 2 months away from the pull-up bar and I still had mild pain that scared me off the pullup bar ! Oh you have made my day! After one session! Can't wait to see if I can sleep on this shoulder.
