Ahhh think I just found the answer to why I have problems in that area, dealing with mainly the external rotation. The uncomfortable annoyance is gradual, like losing circulation, then it feels like that area is hot and eventually it'll spike with pain. Out of all the movements I do, no matter how long theyre done, sweeping is what kills my rotator cuff, external rotation.....huh always wanted to know the name of the effected muscle rather than just saying my shoulder blade. Doctor didn't even tell me, just said I tore a muscle an gave me pills.

Thanks Jeff for the clarification! I was recently diagnosed with a minor sub scapularis ligament tear. Trying to strengthen all the external rotation points to relieve my impingement.
@TheKeyboardBeatz7 жыл бұрын
I want to add my 2 cents to this video. While I agree most people favor internal rotation, the subscapularis does not always contribute to this issue. While it definatly is an internal rotator of the humerus, no one ever talks about it's other functions, or even the functions of the whole rotator cuff, stabilization of the humerus in the socket. The subscapularis plays a key role in this, especially in depressing and pulling the humeral head posteriorly. The other, stronger internal rotators often get tight, short and overactive, being the lats and pec major. These easily overshadow the power of the subscapularis by a long shot. I would argue that most people have this issue. You can quickly spot a weak subscapularis in someone. Most of them have the typical foward shoulder posture, but there's a key point which you need to look at, the front of the shoulder. If the front of the shoulder looks bony and feels hard and tender, this means the humeral head is sitting too anteriorly in the shoulder capsule, which means the subscapularis is not doing it's role of depressing and pulling the humeral head posteriorly. This is important to know, as most people can get a false diagnosis, avoid internal rotation exercises for the subscapularis like the plague, and never get to the root of the issue. The exercise he showed, is an effective subscapularis exercise, but also an even more effective lat and pec exercise, due to their effective line of pull when the arm is by the sides, hence why this is such a strong position for most people. Give the same exercise a shot, but place the arm in a 90° abduction, meaning to raise your arm to your side to the horizontal plane. Perform the exercise there, you will notice apparent weakness in this position, because the lats and pecs have a poor line of pull, and the only muscle that can effectively internally rotate the humerus becomes the subscapularis. This is equally important when rehabbing this muscle, as using the other version strengthens all internal rotators, which we definalty want to avoid.

Sydney Lybeert do you think this will avoid a shoulder impingement?
@doublevision54655 жыл бұрын
@@lilnips I don't know if Sydney Lybert will respond but I think shoulder impingement has more to do with the positioning of the scapula in space. If the spine is leaning back & rounded - and thus the thorax is rounded - then the scapula will tip & shift up & forward to counterbalance, creating the rounding effect. The scapula will also be obstructed by the rounded back and will not be able to swing as freely sideways. If the scapula is misaligned because the thorax is misshaped & misaligned, then the arm will hang off of & move around it's joint on the scapula differently. The head of the humerus will migrate forward & up creating less space between itself & the acromion. Also, some people have more prominent acromions than others. This will lead to impingement. Fighting internal rotation due to a rounded back and shortened larger lats & pecs (which are also internal rotators) by exercising the smaller external rotators while neglecting the subscapularis - is a case of mistaken identity and a never-ending fool's errand. Internal rotation does not automatically mean impingement and exercising the subscapularis, if the scapula is crooked, will not change a deficit in thoracic extension which will lead to impingement. Internal rotation due to the pecs & lats should NOT be conflated with and seen as a substitute for internal rotation caused by the subscapularis. The subscapularis is a stabilizer and, as such, is a "core" muscle. The pecs & lats - which are more powerful superficial muscles - are NOT stabilizers and, as such, are NOT "core" muscles. Without a solid underlying foundation of, e.g., the shoulder rotators, the pecs & lats will de-stabilize your shoulder. It is more likely that the subscapularis, deeper to the pecs & lats, prevents the anterior upward & forward migration of the glenohumeral joint and thus prevents its impingement against the acromion - assuming that the scapula is where it should be because the spine & ribcage are where they should be. Your arm can fight to turn outwardly but it will still get pulled directly forward while it's turned outward. In other words, you can do rear delt laterals, rear delt rows, external rotations, dumbell high pulls, W's, FACEPULLS, etc., all-day-long BUT it will NOT unround the spine & thorax and thus will NOT change the positioning of the scapula that must balance on a crooked trunk, and thus will NOT truly unround the shoulders to stop anterior migration & impingement of the humerus' glenohumeral joint against the acromion. Doing these exercises are great - and you should do them - but they will not fix the root cause of the shoulder misalignment & impingement - which is the rest of the entire, whole body. Once again, the pecs & lats are internal rotators BUT they are not internal - anterior - stabilizers. In summary, the most important take home point is: The scapula must be in the correct position which means the entire body - it's tissues - must be shaped & aligned in the correct position AND, rather than the external rotators versus the pecs & lats, the front & back (as well as top & bottom) glenohumeral joint rotators should be in balance.
@doublevision54654 жыл бұрын
@@Abdulrahman11717 Hi, Abdoh. I don't have much time at the moment to give you a more in-depth answer but I wanted to give you at least something to work with and get started. The answer, actually, is not doing isolation exercises for the shoulder joint. Before I go further here, consider NOT doing shoulder rotation exercises with abducted arms. That is like sawing your supraspinatus across the grain of the muscle with your acromion. Instead, do the shoulder rotations with your elbow at your side or lower than shoulder-level. Internal rotation, i.e., your subscapularis is not your foe. If you stand sideways to a mirror with your palms flat against the side of your thighs and thumbs pointing forward and, from that stance, if you straighten your spine and watch your shoulder blades go back, you will see that your shoulder necessarily internally rotates a little to keep your thumb pointing forward. So instead of focusing on the shoulder, you should change the alignment of the whole body upon which the shoulder sits (as I had alluded to above) by cultivating more favorable connective tissue growth in-between your muscle cells and across your joints. And so, surprisingly, the answer is yoga Sun Salutations and yoga-like stretches. Now, there are a lot of videos, teachers, & variations out there and you're welcome to explore them all but I would not suggest most of them for lining-up the pelvis & spine. But I did do some KZbin re-searching for you. Assuming, you don't have any injuries or predispositions that would preclude you from safely & comfortably doing the following, I specifically recommend these 2 videos by this guy. If you can, master these: Ashtanga Yoga: Surya Namaskara A (Sun Salutation A) kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4GYgYanotOobpo Surya Namaskara B (Sun Salutation B) kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWqXkGiwq91mg7s Notes: There are a few changes I would make in the videos: Don't rise up from forward-fold or forward-bend to standing with a straight back. Roll your spine up to standing instead. Rolling up the spine is called "Spinal Integration." "Spinal Integration" will un-round the upper spine more effectively. This wave-like movement ends with a tucked chin. Inhale, roll up a little further. Stop to exhale. Inhale again and roll up even further, etc... At least, in the beginning, do the standing, forward-bending, plank/pushup, up/down-dog, & high lunge separately. Break up the Sun Salutation practice into a 4 part version: I. Standing, Forward-Bend/Forward-Fold/Forward-Bend, Rolling the Spine Up to Standing [repeat] II. Plank to Lowering Push-Up Position to Knees-Chest-Chin [repeat] III. Upward-Facing Dog [Look Up w/. Head Last] [Look Down w/. Head First] Downward-Facing Dog [repeat] IV. Alternating-Sides High Lunges to Alternating-Sides Low Lunges [repeat] [Try to keep your knees straight to stretch the upper thigh. Lower the knee when you get fatigued.] Use a timer especially when doing the asymmetric stretches one side at a time, e.g., when doing the lunge stretches. Set the timer for 40 seconds (10 seconds for set-up time; 30 seconds for stretch time.) Over days & weeks, work your way up to doing 1:40 (90 seconds stretch.) It takes about 30 seconds for your nerves to start allowing the stretch to go farther. It takes about 60 to 90 seconds for the tissues to stretch farther still from thixotropy. Of course, don't over do it. There's only so much one can do at a time. As with weight training, the goal is to initiate the healing & growing process without injuring yourself. So be careful and respect & listen to your limits and how you feel. Also: Inhale when you look up, raise your arms, & bend backward or arch your back. Exhale when you look down, lower your arms, & bend forward & round your back. In addition: Work on Thoracic Extension & Thoracic Rotation. Jeff's got some great videos & info on that. There are other things you can do for that but I'll save that for another time. There are a lot of other things I could recommend, e.g., some (but not all) from the Astanga series, some not from Astanga yoga, and other stuff that looks like yoga but isn't yoga (although the word, "yoga", itself simply means "yoke" or "mastery" kind of like "kung fu" which means "skill.") But I think this is enough for starters. Do this habitually (almost) every day, regularly, like brushing your teeth & combing your hair and you'll see that you'll stand easier & more simply and your shoulders will sit easier & more simply as well.

I started the pendulum work with a three pound dumbbell and sometimes go up to a ten pounder. But I find I get different feeling from a very light weight and a heavier weight, so best to try both. Sometimes a heavier weight causes me to guard my shoulder and the movement does not work deep into the shoulder when I use a lighter weight and I can allow my shoulder to relax more during the movement. A very strong and muscular person would probably never have to exceed fifteen pounds for this movement and I will still tell them to try the lighter weight to determine which one they prefer. The farmers walk will put a stretch on the upper trapezius and even the deeper levator scapulae which may be why it helped your neck problem.

Great video Jeff!!! I recently tore ligaments in my shoulder, physio diagnosed it as a grade 2 AC joint injury. Working with a physio and chiro to get my shoulder better again so i can get back on the MTB. Great explanation of the rotator cuff and exercises to build strength in those muscles.

Jeff, you mentioned that you had a Labrum tear. Did you have surgery? And it is worth not doing it? Sure, surgery is very invasive and you'll have to do rehab and stay some time off the gym, but you will came back fully capable (yeah?) instead of feeling pain and having to work around this every workout. I'am 20 years old, and I follow your channel since I started working out 3 to 4 months ago, and my shoulders were golden( I always followed your advices), but one day I was doing weighted pull-ups (22 lbs) and just let my body falls in the last fatigued rep, since then I've been feeling that instability that you metion and pain consistently during any upperbody workout. Isn't better to just do a surgery and be done with it? I also have a inguinal hernia, so I had to make peace with surgery. This come from you saying that there is no way back from a Labrum tears, there is just ways you can workout around the pain and instability, and I don't this for the rest of my life.

I am back and stronger than ever after my 2 labrum surgeries. I would hold off on doing it until you absolutely can't stand the pain anymore. Recovery is the most pain you'll feel in your life but the end result is worth it. Upside is my bicep looks more jacked than the one I have not had done!

only wet cupping cures it because oxygen and food goes there to cure it The reference is me may be for the first time in the world. After 7 months of useless pills and cortizon injection and a lot of pain I went to the person making wet cupping and "ordered" him to place 3 cups to my shoulder to take the dirty blood and after 5 days I was completely cured thanks to God.

After surgery on both shoulders (three screws in each now after four surgeries - two surgeries on each) therapy with these exercises were three times a week working up to thirty reps each exercise. The weight is very light in the beginning, but should be increased as strength improves. This is for a therapy regime, not bodybuilding. Still, it is a very weak group compared to other groups.
@jakkritphanomchit52113 жыл бұрын
When I do external rotation exercises I find that focussing on driving my elbow forward a little helps. So as I externally rotate I visualise adduction of humerus and forward push of elbow. This helps me get more stability than thinking in terms of driving my lower arm or hand back. In what I am saying, my focus is more on the humerus, and I avoid to much levering. Hope that makes sense.

@ExplorerBen77 жыл бұрын
he has you do rotator cuff exercises after Pushing workouts in AX-1, probably to make sure you get enough external rotation after all the pushing and because if you do it on a pulling day they are already somewhat fatigued so you might not get as good of a workout on them. plus that way you get some indirect work on pulling days and direct work after pushing days so more total work on them for the week.
@ExplorerBen77 жыл бұрын
Rocky Reuben I've done AX-1 and just started AX-2, plus the TNT workouts, if you're already an advanced lifter you can start with AX-2. Athlean-x is great for strength and fat loss especially for balancing out strength imbalances because it forces you to work you're weaker side and the muscles/movements that get ignored by most people, i have way more strength in my legs after AX-1, i was already lean so i skipped alot of the intense "cardio" days but they would definitely help with fat loss and improve foot work/agility/quickness

If it's a lagging area, warm it up with something less taxing. Shoulder "dislocations" with a band or stick are good. Don't fatigue those muscles before heavy compound work. Isolate them after major compound work is done.

Ever since my left shoulder was injured in a car accident It pops and grinds when I lift my arm or externally rotate the arm (pops right at the front most point of the scapula spine), it has been several years since the injury. Should I continue to do shoulder workouts as normal, or is the answer to do something else? I've found so much conflicting information on this topic from PT and online folk. Is it mobility? Weakness in a part of the muscle? I've just been avoiding range of motions that cause the popping, unsure of what to really do. Also thank you for your contribution to the community Athlean-x.
