What's going with your shoulder? Mines has been acting up lately. I have no idea how it all started, but it's annoying. I've been more sedentary lately, my body feels more stiff and rushing my workouts more so I wonder if that played a role for me....

Injured it back in '07 in a NAGA tournament a little rest and occasional advil cleared it up and only had minor issues with it until 2015. Found out it was a SLAP tear, had surgery and found that the cartilage on the humerus was screwed up from most likely snatches when I was WL'ing. I have had off and on issues since. I would have to agree that it is extremely annoying haha, every time I make breakthroughs it flares up. Taking warmups seriously has been the best thing for me, so that might be something to consider for your training. If I take the time to warmup right I def have less of a problem. What has been going on in the shoulder? My issue tends to be rear and resonates down the biceps.

Oh wow, I guess you never know until you get it checked out. Not sure whats going on with mine. Might be aggravation from prior injuries or maybe something new. Yeah, I notice warming up more helps a lot and simply not thinking about it. I may drop back down to benching 2x per week and just include more volume on those days. That way I can get more rest between bench days and another side benefit I can have more time to fit in SOHP , core and upperback accessories.

Forcing myself to do rows and pulldowns/pullups has really helped keep the balance. Also various types of curls and db raises have helped. I am realllly weak with external rotation on my left arm, so I try to add that in as much as I can when I am not being lazy.

Thanks, hoping to take it down before July. Going to do a mock meet Saturday (in place of the one that I was scheduled to do before quarentine), if I feel like it's there I will go for it.
