The chair one...worked immediately. I walked into the kitchen right after and reached up for a coffee can with my right arm that I could not reach with it this morning. Crazy! 8 months of pain, especially trying to sleep. Not all gone, but have some hope with these exercises.
2 months in. how're you doing now?
Same here. Going to try this tomorrow
Just found this video, started some of these exercises last night. How's things feeling for you now?
^^???
You good now?
THIS is what the internet is for. Good stuff guys!!
AGREED!👏🏼
I love your videos! I'm a pre-PT student studying kinesiology and exercise science, learning online has been tough but, watching your videos has helped me to apply what I learn in class to a real-life setting!
1. Fixing your posture: open chest, shoulders externally rotated
2. Scapular retraction
3. Isometric push with counter or chair walk out
4. Chest stretches (doorway pectoral stretch - mid, low, or high, lay on back on foam roller - chest/shoulder muscles relaxed)
5. Prone Y's, T's, extension
6. Resisted external rotation or no monies (towel roll under elbow)
7. Resisted internal rotation
8. Resisted mid rows
Great Shoulder workout for impingement!
Hi Bob and Brad.I wanna say thanks to both of you.I fell down on the floor two months ago and got pain in my shoulders and arms.it was a continuous pain.since yesterday,i am doing these exercises and have got so kuch relief.Before to this ,i thought i have developed a permanent pain which will never go away.but i realised that i was not treated well.Thank you both of you for your services.Love from India.
I got some great advice from these guys on another video around golfer's elbow - I've been struggling with shoulder pain that had caused me to back off lifting, on another video from Bob and Brad I could concur it was shoulder impingement (which is what I thought but I wasn't sure) and even just a day of doing these excersizes I can already feel the benefit. Amazing. Thanks guys ... I know they are a bit goofy but this information is golden. I really appreciate the effort to do these videos and put this information out there. I suppose it's time I finally try to address my terrible posture properly!!
What a difference the exercises made. First I used your videos to diagnose the impingement then the above video to relieve the pain. back to working out. Thanks guys
As for as I can remember I had this pain from 10th grade and it's been like 9 years of hearing clicking, popping, accompanied by minor pain in my left shoulder and out of nowhere it started to give me pain even without rotating today. I did your exercises and I can feel the relief.
Still got some pain and at least I can help no hurt too much until I visit the hospital. I told my parents but they neglected it saying it's my imagination and everyone gets popping sound and pain. I've been neglected emotionally my whole life so this sudden pain feel like I deserve it and it's all my fault for being passive about my pain.
Please don't neglect any child. If a child is sitting alone go and speak with them.
i had to get my spine fused because my parents neglected me. i wish it was just shoulder impingement.
@@klausineliebtpeter you mean you had to undergo spinal fusion surgery because you neglected pain in your shoulder?? That's terrible. And I've been experiencing some pain near my neck for a while.
Can you please elaborate what you went through?
How's the shoulder now?? Did u need hospitalization??
@@debmitra4384 no I didn't ever reach for medical assistance. The shoulder is still the same way it was before, but now I do this exercise of pushing down and stepping back, can feel huge difference after doing it for a while until the pain comes back(usually after few days). I'm thinking about physiotherapy in future. Right now it's manageable.

thanks guys I was having troubles with my right dominate shoulder I will try these and come back to keep you updated. thank you very much
I love these two. Bert and Ernie of the physio world.
Nicely illustrated ..... These exercises work really very well. This has been most useful in providing almost immediate relief of pain. Thank you for these exercises and as well for your light hearted approach.
Thanks Guys! Testimonial here! I had a shoulder impingement that was so bad, I thought I may have possibly torn a rotator cuff tendon; it was like a hot poker jamming into the top of my shoulder even at rest. In fact, there was no comfortable position that I could hold it in without excruciating pain. Luckily, you guys are so famous, I was able to find you. Moving my arm at all was extremely painful, I was able to do the exercise to push my shoulder blades together and down, which although sore, it actually felt pretty good. I was scared to death to put my arm out and grab the chair and push down, which admittedly was sore, BUT, I pushed down and walked back, just as you instructed and amazingly it felt pretty good. I repeated the 2 exercises every hour or two over the next 24 hours and just about a day and a half later my shoulder was almost completely back to normal, the pain went from 10+ down to 1 or 2 and no pain at all with the arm at rest. I could not sleep for 2 days the pain was so intense and the effect of these exercises was miraculous! I watch you guys all the time, you always have so many great tips, if I could I would give both you guys a big hug, God bless you!
I am a self-employed digital artist which means I'm at my desk working at my computer A LOT. I was already doing exercises and stretches from 2-3 of your videos to help with avoiding RSI and carpal tunnel, and upon getting bad neck and shoulder pains I knew exactly who to go to!
You guys are lifesavers! I literally wouldnt be able to do my job without you!
I’m at my desk 4hrs a day doing listings on eBay and the repetitive motion with the right hand has cause the same thing. Makes me not want to work cuz the pain is so bad.
So happy, Ive found something that works. Especially the walking backwards with the chair. ( Impingement in my shoulder from surfing )
You guys deserve a million blessings
SO happy I found you! I've been suffering with shoulder pain for months! Started doing exercises, and massage to the tendon, and today my shoulder pain is at a 3, and yesterday it was a 9 (on a scale of 10)! Can't thank you enough for sharing!
I used my table instead of a chair. Did it with 4 reps and I was already able to lift my arm with no pain. This just saved me!!! I will be doing every single exercise. Thank you so much
Months of going to pT and they told me it was my neck never got better! Watched this once did the chair exercise omg first night I’ve slept right and woke up with some movement and less pain thank god UA-cam suggested this thank you!!!
You guys are AMAZING. I used some of the techniques from this video and some from one of your other videos and within TWO days my pain was almost completely gone. Thank you!
I fractured my humerus almost a month ago & injured my rotator cuff. I’ve been In severe pain And could not raise my arm up to the side for anything. I just wanted to tell you guys THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! After watching your videos and Implementing your advice, I can now lift my arm. What a blessing!!! Thank you again guys this is unbelievable. Keep doing what you’re doing! 🤗
hi Bob and Brad, I was up in the middle of the night tonight with impingement / frozen shoulder pain, found your vids and did the main exercises/stretches a few sets and I already feel so much relief! I seriously cant thank you enough because I was feeling pretty discouraged. I had forgotten about the fact that my postural internally rotated shoulder definitely aggravates this condition. Thanks again for the reminder, for the awesome videos and for making me laugh too!😊
Thumbs UP! I basically could not use my right arm for two weeks. Impossible to raise more than half way. Finally took advil, did nothing….
Did all these exercises and they hurt to do but within the first day, full range of motion. Never pain running to forearm gone. Will keep it up. THANK YOU!!!! Usually told not to move to heal but that only made it much worse every day. This helped in a few hours! Thank you again!
did it worked out 100% arre u cured? :)
Thank you so much! Reduced my pain greatly. God bless!!!!
I originally thought I aggravated my deltoid, but after the issue didn't seem to being going away i started researching more. I have been in pain for weeks, from doing a lot of drywall/sanding on a renovation. vaulted ceilings, using the pole sander murdered my shoulder but we had deadlines so i powered through. Anyways, after doing the recommended foam roller and chair exercises, i experienced the relief I've been chasing for weeks. you guys are amazing, thank you for putting this information out there for free. If only i was as good at finding quality content quickly, as you are at delivering and producing it. Thank you so much!
I don't want to speak too soon but I have been doing these stretches after 5 months out of the gym and having pain in my shoulder these stretches after 4 days the pain is subsiding this is incredible thank you so much guys you are amazing.
The chair one was a miracle 😭🥺💜 thank you so much! Within a day the horrendous pain went from like a 10 to a 5!!!
bob and brad, im in the UK and i adore your videos !!!!!!!!!!! you have taught me so much in your videos and i cant thank you enough for that.
Just found y'all yesterday. I'm 72, I have degenerative arthritis, I golf 2-3 days/week, lots of physical activity. About 6 days ago I started having a sharp pain in my right shoulder. Heat / Ice / vibration nothing helped. I tried the shoulder chair impingement exercise and within 3 hours (doing it 3 times / hour) the pain was gone. Woke up this morning feels great. Thank you very, very much. Your new subscriber.
I’m a disc golfer. My shoulder and upper arm recently began to hurt terribly. I couldn’t find a way to throw that didn’t extend the pain. This video eased my pain immediately. In just a few days of rest and these exercises I was able to return to throw again. Thanks for your advice.
Thank you SO MUCH!!! After six months or more of not being able to put my arm straight up and the pain increasing to being pretty bad. In 24 hours, I am close to being like new!!! No pain at all when I reach across my body.
I am so grateful that channels such as this exist. I woke up with shoulder pain and a numb thumb 4 days ago, and it has only gotten worse. These exercises really gave me relief this morning. The chair exercise in particular gave immediate pain relief. I may avoid a doctor's visit if I continue with these! Thanks so much guys!❤
Oh my god. I hurt my shoulder yesterday, I have no idea how. But the pain was so bad I could barely lift a drink to my mouth, I had to use my right arm (non dominant) for everything. I could tell this was something I was gonna be dealing with for weeks or months.
But then, my friends linked me this video. I tried the exercises, and i already have a massively improved range of motion. I still have pain and dont think i can lift or reach for a few days, but I am already convinced that this will be a much quicker ordeal than I anticipated. Thank you so much guys. I am seriously in tears right now because of the gratitude I feel. Thank you thank you thank you
Thank you so much, Bob and Brad. These exercises along with hanging from a pullup bar (which you showed in a different video) helped my shoulder impingement and pain almost immediately! Really awesome. Very grateful!
You are very welcome Nick!
thank you! My doctor diagnosed me as having spurs/compresion in my spine c6 c7 after an MRI even though I disclosed that the pain started after painting the ceiling. that was 3 years ago and I always suspected I was misdiagnosed and that it was my shoulder. quality of life really goes down when you constantly have to deal neck and shoulder pain. These exercises have been a lifesaver!
They offer extremely valuable knowledge free of charge!! I appreciate these guys so much!!
Love, love, love! Thank you trying these now.. hoping to get back into working out soon!
I really appreciate your videos! This is exactly the problem I'm having and after doing these stretches, I can already feel a difference. Thank you!
Just had a go at some of these along with the rib injury exercises(from a fall). The odd thing was catching a look at my face shortly after and noticing how much more relaxed it looks. Fab stuff. Thank you, next stage of recovery sorted. :)
felt relief from two of these vids… I’m doing ballet exercise so my muscles were sore even with the stretching guidance I had, but these simple techniques are working tremendously. I feel really good and am glad I can keep doing my workouts without pain….
Thanks Bob and Brad. I'm trying to correct sacroiliac, neck and shoulder problems from a car accident after chiropractor care "plateaued" so appreciate your videos.
The chair exercise was very helpful for me. I felt a pop in my shoulder as soon as I started it and immediately afterwards there was less pain and an improved range of motion.
Yep for me too
I had a pop too, I keep feeling the pop doing it and I don’t know what it is. Hopefully it isn’t serious. Whenever I even move my arm laterally I feel it whenever my arm is horizontal. This same popping sound occurs on the chair exercise aswell. No pain during the pop though, any suggestions would be appreciated
I was experiencing this pain for several days and did the recommended exercises. I literally got immediate relief.
Same 🤘👌
Has the relief lasted though?
@@shawn1869 Yeah, I'm good now. It took about 4-5 weeks to completely heal.
This is perfect for many musicians. Shoulder impingement is a huge problem. Thank you. I'm so glad I found your channel. It is the most helpful information I have been able to find. It is wonderful that you guys provide this information. Thank you.
I just checked my diagnostic report and I have calcific tendonitis + bursitis + impingement in my dominant shoulder.
Thanks to it being the Christmas / New Year break, and having a son with moderate to severe autism, I can't get in to a therapist; but with your knowledge freely available i can still do something about the injury!
Thanks guys!
omg. you guys are too funny. and extremely helpful! i just did the "outies" and it totally fixed my shoulder pain!!!!!!!!!!! i cannot believe how amazing i feel now. i've been in pain for so long and couldn't lift groceries out of my car. so thankful for some relief. many thanks and keep up the great work!
You guys are geniuses. I was experiencing this pain for several days and did the recommended exercises. I literally got immediate relief. Thank you so much!!!!
I think you guys hit a home run with my left shoulder pain. I will begin using my bands to alleviate the pain caused by impingement. Thank you Bob and Brad!
love you guys. thank you for being so generous to freely help those in pain.
Yes, the sleeping tips and stretches worked! I've been stuggeling with inpingement for about 5 years. Now I discovered that my sleeping posture was stressing the shoulder tremendously. Other posture and a few tips and man do I feel better. Thanks so much!!
This may sound bizarre but I bought a travel pillow memory foam and it has helped me sleep on my back. It is a little better for my shoulder.
Those resistance band exercises are a blessing oh my goodness! Thank you both so much. Also, never knew posture could affect your shoulders! This channel is a life saver ❤️
I am facing same problem .....inpringement syndrome Left shoulder.
Right shoulder impingement
Just cured my should pain with that chair exercise thank you!!
tnk u so much.whenever i have problem in my muscle i always check ur page...and it really works 👍
I just did the chair exercise, and noticed a huge difference in my shoulder. I've had issues with my shoulder for years because of sports injuries. I've done many of this exercises in the past from physical therapy, but the chair one is new to me.
Thanks guys. Hopefully I'll be back in the mat soon. And yes I've already gone to my doctor lol.
did u managed to come back to training
Thanks guys, this, with some posture changes, has virtually eliminated by shoulder pain I was experiencing with most pushing movements. It was the chair and hands over the head exercise, although I looped elastic bands and used them for the same motion. Im not sure what was wrong exactly but after a few weeks of exercising this way my pain is mostly cured. Thank god I didnt let an orthopedist start digging into me!
The chair exercise is AMAZING!! Thank you!!!
Rock on!!! Bob and Brad.... I really do like your videos and greatly benefited from it too
🗣INSTANT RELIEF WITH THE CHAIR EXERCISE ‼️ I got tingles and felt instantly better! Thank you!
Thanks so much!! I had to come back and say the chair extend works! I did it a few times every hour and now have more movement in my dominant shoulder which was mainly having issues. I use the my desk at work instead of a chair. I also use the retracting of my shoulder and down movement everyday and im so thankful you guys made this video.
Helpful, knowledgeable, experienced, funny, wholesome, SUBSCRIBED!
The chair exercise gave me immediate relief for a minute- which I desperately needed! Thanks!
This is another great and very beneficial video Bob and Brad. Thanks!!! :)
In my school, I didn't understand what shoulder impingement was. Brad and Bob explained well what this condition is all about. In a nutshell, shoulder impingement refers to compression of the rotator cuff tendons due to shoulder movements. It will eventually lead to shoulder pain.
How did you get better?
Cannot wait to get started on these today! Thank you for all you guys do!
Thank you guys, you have cured my wife's shoulder problem she has had for 18 months, she fell off a chair while putting stuff on top of the wardrobe, she hurt her scaphoid bone in her hand, so they put a splint on her hand, while she was still at the hospital she shown them that she could not externally rotate her right hand, but they just ignored her, she has had shoulder and back pain ever since, just a few minutes doing your exercises has cured her problem.
This is among one of the greatest UA-cam channels ever
Bob and Brad cured my shoulder impingement! The exercise with the chair was the most effective for me. I'd been to the doctor, but the exercises they had given me were more for rotator cuff. After about six months of constant pain and limited motion, I found this video and starting with the chair exercise. I started feeling improvement quickly! Now several months later my shoulder is basically good again. Thanks Bob and Brad!
Any updates? I have a pretty wicked shoulder impingement and your comment gives me hope. Are you 100% now?
@@burtrandolph1745 q
@@monggolloyd8363 Fwiw I started following the tips in this video and my shoulder pain is totally gone. Just takes time.
Thanks for the update
Thanks a lot guys. I came back from Malaysia to the Netherlands and almost immediately started having this pain when lifting my arm. This helped very fast.
I got good relief. I need to keep doing these. Thank you very much.
Just want send over a huge thank you! I woke up this morning not able to lift my arm because of impingement. Now I am able to move it and I am now pain free for work. Thanks so much!
Intant relief..bless you both!
Soooooo helpful!!!!! Great Channel!!!! May you always thrive---you are helping many!!! Blessings!!!!
why am I seeing this video only now???? you guys are amazing.... thanks a lot! it's already giving me relief after a weak of trying to fix it by my self! I knew it was an impingement but I was trying (like the 80% of gym people do) to externally rotate my shoulder, and stretching my pec! tnx tnx and tnx
God bless u both....chair exercise gave instant relief
Me too
do you hear like a crack when you do it? It happens to me
@@MRZEDDA yup
This is gonna be a long comment, whoever wants to read the details can go ahead, and i'm gonna leave a TLDR here for those who dont feel like it
TLDR: Had tendonitis,extreme pain, took Doctor's advice, layed off the gym for 2 years, but pain returned as soon as i returned to the gym. Found these videos, did the movement shown at 3:43 as well as some dead hangs shown in other video, and tendonitis VANISHED.
Hey guys I just came back here to say that you saved me a whole lot of trouble, pain , expenses and general suffering. This video and the other one with the dead hangs literally saved my shoulders. One week in of simply doing these two things and the pain was 90% gone. So was impingement, and exercises that used to cause pain at the gym are now pain free and with no post-workout inflammation and pain. In general my tendonitis has almost vaporized. 3 weeks in right now I keep getting better and as soon as I address the issue that causes this, which is probably my shoulder rotation, I'm sure my tendonitis will be gone for good.
I've had this issue for a total of 3 years. When it first started I went to the doc, he told me usual crap, stay off it, take these NSAIDS, ice it, relax on the gym, stop working it so much, blah blah. All useless bullshit and that was confirmed when I took the next two 2 years after that incident completely off from the gym (not because of the tendonitis but because of life). At least I hoped now that i layed off for so long my shoulder issues will be gone. But NOPE. 1 week back in the gym I was already crippled by pain. That's when I looked on the **GOD BLESSED PRODUCT OF CAPITALISM CALLED THE INTERNET** and found your videos. As I already said, 1 week later my issue was 90% gone. No drugs, no laying off from the gym ,nothing. I kept going hard at the gym and just did these 2 exercises. poof. pain gone, simple as that.
So thank you again for putting these out there. This would have fucked me up if it wasn't for you people. i'm deeply grateful.
moikanos11
I just discovered these videos as I , too, was told ‘rest, stretch, ice, anti inflammatory drugs, and no gym’ for 6 months now with no improvement. Just now the chair exercise has relieved some of my pain. Will comment again in a week with an update.
Im sort of in your shoes right now, can confirm the chair one brought relief. Lets see in a week!
David Day How’s everything going with your shoulder today?
I hope this helps me. Even i layed of gym for 2 years. 4 weeks into the gym the pain started again. Let's see how this goes. Finding a ray of hope
dude you gave so much hope, thank you
OMG, this worked straight away for me. Thanks guys... Really making a difference to peoples lives..
Two times I have watched your videos and both times i was able to relieve the impingement. Thank you so much.
"hey this is a nice shirt Bob."
Yeah, subscribed after this one. Having some shoulder issues and this seems nice, simple advice to start fixing them. Thanks.
Just what I was looking for. Thank you!
You're welcome Patrick!
These guys always give great advice. This helped after a few days of reps for sure.
Thank you very much. I have had very restricted shoulder movement since a break of my humerus. Nothing has been working until I saw your video and realised that it was weeks hunched forward in a sling that has resulted in the range of movement being so restricted. One day of pushing my shoulder back has increased the range by about 30% - no one else I have spoken to explained this simple thing.
THANKS a lot after 8 years of pain the chair exercise helped me get over that pain ... now m doing it every 2 hours 2 -4 times....j
I really love their chemistry, it’s so natural and genuine
Just tried the chair exercise. Did 5 reps and got some instant relief. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this video. I was in terrible pain (8) and after doing the first to exercises it started to subside. And now after continuing several times a day - 2 days later I have almost complete mobility back and the pain is practically gone. This was an answer to prayer.
I had a case of shoulder impingement along with a minor bicep strain around October last year. it really sucked I relied on the advice of some of your old videos during my recovery process. I'm happy to say that both have healed after 4 months of doing your exercises almost every day. I've been back at gym for about 2-3 months and I'm almost back to where I was ito of strength before the injuries. I want to thank you guys for the great work you are both doing. it's Mich appreciated. all the way from South Africa.
That's good to hear. Unfortunately i'm in the same position now as you were and it sucks. I can't bench press with a barbell anymore and i can't hit my side delts as lateral raises are to painful. Did you still train with this injury or did you wait until it had healed? 4 months out the gym for me will be total torture, i miss a couple days and i'm tearing my hair out
Thank you, guys. Just watched 3 of your videos on shoulder impingement and already helping. God bless.
I needed this. Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.
This an incredibly helpful resource; thank you for doing it
Thank you this helped me so much I was really worried when I noticed I could no longer bend my arm behind my back googled around and found infringement these exercises definitely work after just a day I already have significant increased mobility
Y'all have helped me so much, kinda transformed my life! I'm in my 60s, and have had steadily increasing joint and muscle pain for decades--until I discovered your channel! My posture is improving, my mobility noticeably better, and pains are diminishing. I've even created a playlist, "Feeling Better), ~90% of which is made up of your videos! You are a true blessing. I also love your opening quotes, those have helped me, too! Thank you.
I have had scapula, tenes major, tenes minor, deltoid and neck pain from cardio boxing for a year! I had an xray, 3 steroid Injections and MRI which showed nothing. I woke up at night in pain and even got some exercises from a physical therapist (for my $55 copay) that didn’t work! I finally avoided working out all together. ONE DAY I did 5-an-hour shoulder squeezes and 5-an-hour chair pushing moves, like you demonstrated, using my desk at work and the pain is GONE! Yesterday was day 2, same thing! I haven’t done the moves today and I’m a little stiff (going to do the moves now!) but WOW what a miracle! Thanks sooo much! You guys are helping a lot of people! I’ll recommend you to anyone suffering!
Thanks so much Bob and Brad. Last night I started getting a sharp pain in my shoulder which was much worse this morning, restricting movement especially of the arm up/down across my body. After doing these stretches over the last few hours already mobility is improving and pain is reducing. I was worried I was going to be stuck like this for weeks! Thanks for nipping this in the bud!
I think I got a shoulder impingement from leaning on my right arm on the sofa while watching TV and on the arm of my computer chair when reading internet texts. My recovery was both exercises and figuring out what caused the impingement and avoiding them.
Same here.
Same
I've never knew what shoulder impingement was until I saw this video and its definitely something I've been dealing with since I was a teenager. I'm now 43 and just trying to correct it and I know it may not be possible at my age but I will continue to try these exercises. Good vid.
Wish I had found this video sooner. Any luck?
@@miguelriverajr8263 still doing the exercises but I know it won't change overnight but like you I wish I found the vid sooner as well.

Thanks so much. Have been having a bit of a problem with my right shoulder lately.
