Gymcel help: Shoulder impingement

[Going2KillMyself]

How do you avoid this shit? Do you just go slower with pressing movements?

An easy rule of thumb to help prevent these imbalances is to train every upper body push exercise with a pull exercise. That means that if you do a pushup, do some rows. If you do an overhead press, do some pull-ups. day, we slouch forward in our chairs which causes our shoulders to round forward.

 

[Doober]

You really just got to play around with handspacing on the bar and focus on exercises that feel right. Like if you feel your biceps contracting along with your lat that's a bad sign

I approach the bar and touch my shoulders to it and then adjust my grip so that it feels right before I do a slight front squat to get it into rack position. If you feel tension in your biceps the bar is either to low or forward to comfortably press it

Is this for benching or overhead pressing

Take a weeks rest periodically ice it
Do 4 sets of 25 face pills with bands before every upper body workout

 

[Going2KillMyself]

do face pulls

Would other exercises work to strengthen the rotator cuff? I need another tricep rope to do facepulls properly ngl I feel like the rom is too low with regular tricep rope

Isn’t that excessive? Have u done this? Ngl j usually neglected it and did like a brief warmup with bands for 6 reps jfl. I’ll do it more seriously this time

Nope I do 10 minutes of it every upper body workout rear delts and rotator cuff are the most undertrained muscles in the body average Joe or gym goer regardless.
It’s not high intensity just frequency and volume

Any benching and overhead press yea

Hang

 

[Going2KillMyself]

Hang

Seems like cope but maybe it can help with the scapula ?

 

[AlexAP]

Face Pulls are the best exercise for this.

Another simple exercise you can do at home is the Wall Angel.

I avoided surgery & reversed my shoulder Impingement years ago with passive hanging, face pulls & the other movements mentioned in the thread.

Hanging is biologically ingrained to be apart of our daily movement. We are part Chimp part Annuanaki or something like that..

Oh yeah and banded pull aparts daily for high reps

Arch

 

[Going2KillMyself]

Arch

I do actively arch it but sometimes it’s hard to keep tension in the back while pressing.

Should I just lower weight?
