What would the bench internal/external rotation exercise be called. Also should I tuck in my shoulder blades when doing it like I normally wood with a dumbbell bench press

[@WenningStrength]

Her brother. Ask questions on my patreon!! That’s how we fund the channel www.patreon.com/wenningstrength

[@karlk9316]

Very helpful, so thanks Matt. A cable face pull I regularly do twice per week, and I'll try with bands soon. The reverse incline Y raise I do but with the thumbs leading to get external rotation and avoid possible impingement. Your pinky-up version I will test soon. The third and fourth exercises are completely new to me and look fantastic. The reverse incline DB shrug could really help my scapular activation which I have been working to improve. A barbell standing internal-external rotation I perform as a warm-up. Because it is the same basic movement it likely has an effect similar to your DB bench internal external rotation exercise, which would help my benching. The cable driven rear delt fly I have been doing as a safer alternative to bench flys, but with a bent elbow. I'll try it with a straight elbow as in your video.

Use a tens machine also, they really get the blood into the areas needed, as you can place the pads right where you want them.

[@Turco949]

I definitely agree with the "posture" part aka the root cause of almost all back and neck problems. The key thing being the head positioning when you are walking, sitting, sleeping, driving, etc.

[@ollvi]

i'm the rare case then, because i've very good posture and my back muscles are way stronger and bigger than my pecs. And my rear delts are very good developed and i do double more pulling than pushing volume and i can barbell row with good form almost 20kg more than i bench and yet still i'm always having shoulder pain...

[@Turco949]

@@ollvi If you are 100% positive about your posture, then, my guess is you have a lingering tendon injury which every person reacts/displays differently. Either way, have you tried taking some time off (weeks, even months) to see if it got better?

[@ollvi]

@@Turco949 I will take this whole week off. I've noticed that i have pretty bad shoulder extension mobility, so i've been working on that lately. I'll do only mobility and rotator cuff exercises, no lifting for a week or maybe more and see if it helps and if not, then i'll go to see a doctor or PT

[@Turco949]

@@ollvi That is a smart move. If you noticed improvement, then you know what you were lacking. Rest/sleep is very crucial for gains as well as injury prevention and recovery. Also, if you weren't already taking any, look into taking Glucosamine, Chonroitin and MSM for bones and joints. If you suspect tendons being the culprit, then try D-Glucuronolacton. Good luck!

I have a quick question about the Bicep point, i have severe shoulder inflammation my GP did an ultrasound but i keep telling him that i feel my Bicep is week. Could i have a problem with it as well or do you think its referral pain from shoulder. My GP said if there was a problem with the connection of the Bicep at the shoulder it would have been picked up in the ultrasound, i am just confused as why does my Bicep feel week.

[@mattwenning2164]

Edgar Jarroush I would say possible horseshit. Bicep has always been a problem for most.... not saying it’s stronger. It just may be doing too much work

[@stevewildeagle965]

If your getting pain in the side of the bicep that kinda radiates down the forearm, you could have strained your bracallis muscle. I injured mine months ago, and it still hurts, lowered the strength and weight I curl in my left allot.

[@marLamaDeo]

I have problems with my left bicep because my left pec attachment onto the shoulder is messed up, affecting he stability of the shoulder overall. It’s not necessarily your bicep itself that’s the issue but it’s struggling to compensate or function normally

[@MrLovinator]

@@mattwenning2164 Ok I see! I personally have had some issues with pain/inflammation in the anterior delt when doing chest preses and some rear delts exercises. But no pain when doing overhead presses (Shoulder DB press, Military press, smith shoulder press etc). However I've started to implement rotator cuff exercises as a warmup before I do my pressing, which has helped a lot. Just wondered if any of these exercises, would be good to add to my warmup routine pre pressing, for someone who have had problems with shoulder pain/inflammation previously :)
