    Smile Re: Pain in shoulder region

    hi
    it may be a pec strain.why don't you try Wikipedia reference-linkrotator cuff strengthening.usually gym going people strengthen more of their deltoid and pecs for good appearance.this is inducing muscle imbalance in the shoulder. rotator cuff plays the major role in dynamic stability.in painful shoulder,its activity is usually diminished

    Re: Pain in shoulder region

    As a fellow weight training and fitness enthusiast, I highly recommend staying away from any movements that may be aggravating the pain at this time.

    The problem, is it identical to last year? If so there is probably scar material in the area, as well as micro-trauma to the pecs (only a possibility).

    It is impossible to say, without examining your form, the reason for the onset of pain.

    If I could see the form, biomechanics, and examine the onset of symptoms I would be able to say clearly it was a pec strain. However, the best advice I can give is to see a sports physio or a rehabilitation specialist that has a background in weight training etc.

    Regards
