    I can not believe I randomly found this video on the front page of my suggestions.
    I have had this shoulder pain for over a year and have been in physical therapy for 4 months. My shoulder got better to an extent, but had plateau. My PT was alluding to something being wrong with my bicep tendon after a few months of one on one work.

But, doing those exercises for posterior shoulder and back has really helped me to be able to lift weights again mostly pain free. I have noticed the gun and/or even TENs or dry needling helps. There’s actually a surgery you can get for it if it’s bad enough.

    Great advise here.
    I've been subconsciously incorporating these into my workouts over the past year or so, with great results, namely slowed motions, building progression over time, and wider grips for squats/ closer grips for bench press. Seeing gains can be frustrating, as typically it takes longer, and more focused work (at least in my case), but the end result of minimal/no pain during and after exercises is well worth the wait. Thanks!

    I had chronic bicep tendinitis. Had loads of physiotherapy on it with different physiotherapists over a ten year period. And once given time to recover and then starting to rehab back. They all recommended shoulder external rotation exercises. And every time this flared up the tendinitis back worse than ever! In the end it was a case of a case of trail and error. I have my body a long period of time off the gym. Then when I came back I gradually introduced exercises into my regime one at a time and lower volume and weight. If something hurt I stopped immediately and tried something else. It probably took a few years in totally but I eventually got to the point I could train for an hour again with no pain and now it's pretty much gone completely. There's certain exercises I keep away from full stop though as I know if I started doing them it would be a matter of time before it all flared up again. Probably the biggest tip I'd give people is to try complete body routines and drop training different body parts on different days. A simple 4 sets on biceps, triceps, chest, back, shoulders and squats with 48 hours recovery worked really well for me.

    I've had something like this forever -- I caused the problem by continuing to low bar squat when my shoulder was beaten up -- stupid move. At its worst, I couldn't do push-ups, push a heavy door or do pull-ups.
    Physios were stumped. Gym trainers tried some things and nothing really worked.
    Then I stumbled upon a page talking about biceps tendinopathy, and it had an exercise that worked really well for me (caveat: for me, singular). The exercise was ... supinated front dumbbell raises. 3 sets of 15 with low weights (progressively heavier dumbbells of 5kg, 6kg, 7kg over the weeks).
    I do this routine before _every_ gym session as a warmup and it allows me to do most movements pain-free. When I do this routine daily for a few weeks, my pain almost completely vanishes. I still can't flat bench, but that's about the only limitation. Worth a try if anyone's struggling.

I’ve developed a whole assortment of impingements and painful issues over the years most likely due to repetitive motions and muscle imbalances and I’ve recently been able to alleviate some of them through specific exercise routines. I’ve still completely stayed away from any press exercises aside from very light overhead presses due to the pain in my front shoulder area. I’m definitely going to try this exercise during my next warmup to see if it helps.

    I am 62 working out for 40 years. Out of no where, it began to hurt bad to raise side laterally, and to do movements like tuck in my shirt behind my back, arcing movements and seated triceps dips (and hurt at night bad sometimes - used a lot of heat pads on it). Pain mainly in center/mid-to-top side of shoulder but seemed to phantom out into upper shoulder/trap are . Doctor took X-ray. Shows slight arthritis and he said I likely had bursitis at first. Then after awhile, my right should was snapping painfully. After 3 months, it has subsided. Finally got an MRI. It shows no evidence of rotator cuff tear. It stated: "There is an abnormal signal along the distal supraspinatus tendon consistent with tendinosis. Laterally downsloping acromion with narrowing of the subacromial space.". Now Doctor says I have tendinosis. Does this fall into that Tendinopathy. I layed off the gym for 2 months but I was still using the shoulder as I was doing a remodel for 3 months. Doctor had me scheduled for a ultra sound cortisone shot but it got delayed due to scheduling for 2.5 months. When time came to get shot, I was feeling 85% better so I declined. Now back at gym doing slowly working shoulders again after about 6 months of being careful with it. Doing some external rotation exercises to warm up.

    Oh my god this video is perfect. I wish you made it years ago! It took me 1.5 years, and the funny thing is that I naturally made all the exact modifications you mentioned! So I’m glad I’m on the right path.
    I knew you hit it spot on because you mentioned the pain during back squats. An alternative for me was switching to front squats, they work well for me
    Another piece of advise for others, rehabbing this takes a looong time, so take it real slow. If you rush, it WILL flare up again and you’ll be out for another few weeks. So gradual increase in volume and load is required.

    I was hoping for a more detailed guide, similar to the approach you presented in another video about patellar tendinopathy - You gave a very detailed explanation. Talking about how different stages are involved when rehabbing an injured tendon and what kind of exercises need to be done in each of the stages. I think that kind of information is critical when it comes to tendon rehab because you have to be careful about not doing too little or too much when loading the injured tendon. I've been seeing a physical therapist for this bicep injury, and yet I always leave with the feeling of still not knowing exactly how to go about my rehabilitation in the right way. It would be amazing if you could provide some extensive detail on the steps needed to create the stimulus needed for the tendon to heal in the right way, similar to what you explained with patellar tendinopathy. :)

    I was diagnosed as having this after x-ray, mobility testing, cortisone injection, and even went to PT for it for 6 weeks before there was a follow up. Both the Orthopedic Doctor and PT said I didn’t have a tear or I wouldn’t be able to move my arm, though the PT said I had symptoms of a tear but they would be surprised. Instead I had a more significant injury.

    I just found your video and I have to say you hit everything perfectly right on point. I had a torn bicep and rotator and rehab was not fun. I compete in powerlifting and I have to be extremely careful that I don't overdo certain things like heavy curls, heavy dumbell rows or anything really that tightens up my biceps and shoulders because it'll kill my squat and bench.
    You touched on people having trouble squatting because of severe discomfort when reaching back trying to grab the bar. This is my WORST lift because of that pain. I mainly use a safety squat bar if I'm training because it's harder, the same basic muscle groups are being used and I can focus on the movement not how bad my left shoulder hurts.
    Getting under the bar hurts but it isn't really the bad part, it's when I come back out from under it and the sting hits. It's almost like a good whack of smelling salts right to the brain.
    Towards the end of your video you also talked about shoulder exercises. I don't know what causes it or what is happening inside of my shoulder but during stretching it feels like rubber bands snapping on my nerve endings. The worst thing is I can feel it coming because it sort of tightens up and I can feel a pinch. If I rotate my shoulder sure enough I can find the snap and then it feels better. Until the next one.
    You hit on three stretch positions except your holding the stretches isometrically. The only difference is I lay face down on the floor or on a bench if you have one handy. I put my arms straight out at my sides, palms down and raise them as high as I can off the floor keeping the tension on my shoulders.
    This is where the joy begins, now I do a reverse snow angel through the whole range of motion touching my hands over my back and then go all the way forward until they touch over my head. I don't drag my hands on the floor either, I keep them elevated so my shoulders are always under constant tension.
    When I find a spot that's painful I move through the range working on that spot until it feels better, then move on to the next spot. Lol
    I do this stretch nightly or as much as I can tolerate it. In my last competition I was able to get my arms back much easier while squatting with very minimal pain.
    I'm going to add some of the external rotation exercises you recommended as accessories to my training program. I think it will be worth taking a couple of steps back to be able to take a big leap forward if I can manage this pain better.
    Thank you for the video and it also makes me feel better knowing that what I'm already doing is correct.

    That Barbell Back Squat is where I definitely felt it. I stayed away from push ups, pull ups, dips and thought I would just do legs. Stepped into the rack with only the bar, I said NOPE! This sh*t hurts as soon as I got under and positioned my hands. Dr. said Biceps tendinitis. Still dealing with it 2 years later even after a cortisone shot. Frustrating.

    also what can cause this is having tight or weak rotar cuff muscles. the lack of stability/strength can result in the front of the shoulder and the bicep tendon to take more stress to compinsate. what helped me was using a lacrose ball for trigger points on my poster shpulder, tere minor, etc. aftwer that i used isometric holds with a band to active and strengthen the muscles.

One tip I would give to anyone who has a similar injury is to listen to your body and stop playing for as long as needed for your body to fully recover. I didn’t and ended up with a separate grade 3 AC joint injury on the same shoulder, possibly because it was made weaker by the tendinopathy! I will incorporate some of these exercises into my weekly physio.

    Man I've only been dealing with this issue for a week so it's scary to read about people dealing with it for months.
    My bicep strength has always seemed to progress faster than most of the rest of my body, especially the triceps. I even cut down on bicep training recently.
    I thought the issue was accidentally going too deep with internal rotation (accidentally) on the shoulder press machine but maybe this is a coincidence as symptoms began a few days after I trained.
    I can notice it so much now, like my bicep just seems to tighten up, and my arm just naturally wants to stay in a flexed position.
    Thank you for this video, and I really do hope this issue doesn't last long.

    Took me a year and a half to get 90% pain free. But half of that time was me not doing anything with my left arm/shoulder (hoping it would recover better this way). That was a bad idea. Using it with limited motion and weight sped up recovery, some days felt worse than others but you'll get the hang of it; don't get too upset if you pushed yourself a little too hard on a particular day because you'll still recover faster.

    What a great video. I have had this exact pain for decades. It seems to get worse when I start to build more muscle. My front and lateral deltoids are so much stronger than my read deltoid, very hard to put hands behind my neck to hold long bar for back squats, front squats easies the shoulder pain. Also needed to bring in my grip on flat bench as the wider grip with elbows outward cause more pain in that area of the shoulder. Bringing the elbows in just a bit with the grip eases the discomfort. Strength is still good but always worried something would tear. Good to know what it is and how to fix it now.

    All the pressing and reaching behind the back is spot on. Reducing ROM on shoulder press (the lower end hurts, keeping it up near chin level and above is fine. However, curls don’t hurt, at all. I assume it’s just my rotator cuff and I’ve been seeing an Air Force PT for it. But it’s not getting better. 3 weeks of the treatment plan he gave me and a lot of it was what you listed here, with no change.

      @@chadgrimaldi6559 ​​⁠I had a sub pectoral bicep tendonesis surgery. The bicep tendon that goes through the shoulder is detached and reattached to my upper arm before the shoulder joint.
      I’m in the UK, I had had MRI scans which didn’t raise any major inflammation (although I suspect it just wasn't bad enough for our state funded NHS to lean towards a surgical solution), even though I would often get the shoulder impinged and be in intense pain followed by weeks of recovery to simply move my shoulder properly without pain. This happened over several years until I was eventually referred to a private clinic and saw a surgeon, he saw the weakness in my shoulder and recommended surgery to see how bad the problem was, the damage to my shoulder wasn’t too bad he said but decided to do the procedure anyway.
      It took 2 years to fully recover (make sure you religiously follow any physio regime) and now shoulder is 95% back to normal. I can bench press again, I can climb, I can do all the things that before ran the risk of a painful incident.
