Been doing every shoulder mobility stretch I can think of as well as strengthening my rotator cuffs every single day for almost 3 months and both shoulders still pop like crazy. Have had to completely stop bench press and any shoulder training in the gym. Really halted my progress.

[@gcnd5523]

[@skinnypunch1475]

@Ashly Nope, I'm glad I stopped working out and got it checked out. The popping was due to the tendon pinching between my bones and caused a degenerative tear in my rotator cuff. Gonna take 6 months to heal.

I don’t really hear the pop almost at all, but i fee it inside my left shoulder everytime I go to do a spiking motion with volleyball, or doing a full spin of my arm going from my highest point to lowest point of contact with the arm.

[@odstboo1471]

I partially dislocated my shoulder and it isnt in the same position as it was. I ended up getting better but when I workout or sleep on it wrong it tends to hurt. I found that sometimes when I relax my shoulders and use my internal muscles around my collar bone it will crack. I think sometimes air pinches on a nerve for me. I also found that relaxing my muscles and letting someone move my arms can help. Lastly I found that working with dumb bells to strengthen my tendons and ligaments helps alot. (I can use 50s but I go down to like 20s and do my workout there) For a week I would just use the bells for shoulder exercises then go up 5lbs the next week till I got to my old weights. I hope this helps anyone. Please stretch always too, its good for the body!

Hey bro... Can you make a more detailed version of this with the tests and the exercises to be performed if each test is positive... It would seriously be helpful...

My left shoulder is popping and you're right, it's a mobility problem. Never had it before and now my left shoulder really can't do a straight half Y shape because it would hurt.

my right shoulder pops and clicks a lot. but I kinda make it pop??? i rotate my arm inward. It’s starting to get sore. not really unbearable pain or anything. I do it to my left but not nearly as much as my right. would you say this is more of a habitual thing and since I do it a lot to my right, that’s why it’s sore and slightly hurting? should I test out not doing it at all and see if the soreness goes away, and then visit a doctor if not? sorry i’m kind of an over thinker. 😬

I think that's exactly what I have, when I outstretch my right arm inward my shoulder pops. I'm going to try stretching and using resistance bands to hopefully overcome the problem, if after 2 weeks of doing this consistently it hasn't improved then I will go to the doctor.

I think I've had this problem since I fell & landed straight on both palms on my hands from halfway up the climbing rope in elementary school. :S Felt pain shoot from my wrists up to my shoulders. But the pain left quickly, so I thought I was fine. Other than my wrists & hands jamming up sometimes (especially when cold), making writing difficult and slow. And occasionally, mild waves of dull aching, and shakiness. But now that I look back, I remember the clicking just seeming normal to me throughout life. But while it wasn't painful, it just made me cringe at the noise & feeling, so I avoided those movements. Finally started to try learning how to workout with weights, and got frustrated wondering what I must be doing wrong when it came to shoulder exercises, because I kept hearing the clicks no matter what advice I followed. So I avoided them for some time to stick on just a couple other workouts for the time being. But now this makes a lot more sense. ^^; Thanks for the video.
