Many people today seem to get shoulder issues on a more regular basis than I would like to see. With guys is usually due to too much office work, chest work at the gym and poor posture in general. For the girls, multitasking carrying kids, mobile, bag, water and whatever they can fit into their grasp...
Here is a workout to help you build strong healthy shoulders that remain pain free.
A1- KB half kneeling bottoms ups press- 3 sets, 12 reps a side, slow tempo
A2- Seated cable face pulls with rope- 3 sets, 10-12 reps, slow tempo
Rest 60 seconds and repeat 3 times
B1- Standing SA DB Press with Neutral Grip- 3 sets, 12 reps each arm, slow tempo
B2- Prone KB Rows (Batwings)- 3 sets, 12 reps, slow tempo (Go one notch lower on bench than video)
Rest 60 seconds and repeat 3 times
C1- KB seated arnold press- 2 sets, 15 reps, slow tempo
C2- Band pull aparts- 2 sets, 15 reps, fast tempo
Rest 30 seconds and repeat 2 times
Have a go. I hope your arms don't burn too much during... ;-)
If you have any pain during (and burn does not count), consult a physio for an assessment and get treated until pain free.
