Few years ago I was having pain in my shoulder while benching. After some time I decided to see a random orthopedist and have it looked at. He sent me for some pictures and even gave me a cortisone shot. After the shot wore off I went back and said a temporary fix is not what I'm looking for. He told me I was middle aged (37 at the time) and that I would have to live with it. At this point I was bummed out. Fortunately after doing some research I found a well known Orthopedics guy in my area. I always heard he was a very rude to people unless you were an athlete. I had to wait a while but I got an appointment. Here is how this visit went and I'm not exaggerating. In the room waiting. He walks in and asks me the problem. I tell him that I am feeling pain in my shoulder while bring the weight down while benching. He moved my arm around and said I'm going to have you do some stretches and you'll be good. He said his assistant would be in to show me how to perform the stretch and then he was out the door. If he spent more than 2 minutes in that room with me I would be surprised. The stretch was the sleeper stretch. This is a miracle stretch. After performing the stretch a couple times a day for about a week the pain was completely gone. He lived up to his reputation but he fixed a pain I had been living with for a quite some time. That other doctor was a quack.

Great videos! I have a question. In 2019 had a posterior shoulder dislocation and suffered an impact fracture to the ball of the humerus at point of contact. In a surgical procedure in March, 2021 The BALL joint was replaced in the -Ream & Run- procedure done as an ATHLETIC PROSTHESIS, JUST the Ball joint. In the surgery I was told the biceps tendon was frayed and the doctor repaired it. My current problem is the tighness I get when raising my arm up overhead. The tightness is in the top front of the shoulder, where the biceps tendon attaches, and the area around the scapula/lats which aren't as -Mobile-. I seem to get more relief when I workout the biceps with curls and then some stretching. But I still can't get the scapula to move as independently as it should. Do you have any advice on how to get the flexibility back in these areas. Doc told me I should be close to 100% after two years, and although I DO workout and go to P. T. once a week, I'm also 67 years young, and the process isn't as fast as I was hoping for. A previous patient was able to resume powerlifting after having the same surgical procedure done, but he was a much younger man, in his 30s. Thanks for ALL you do to help those of us in need.

I-ve been paying attention to myself lately, which most don-t do. I-ve had an issue with my left shoulder for years where I couldn-t reach around my back and touch my scapula. Very apparent in the shower. Like most I ignored what my body was telling me, and I just worked around this impingement. I finally listened to my body, and found this stretch. It literally took me 3 rounds of this stretch, to fully loosen the tight muscle and I was able to rotate my palm all the way to the ground. No more tightness and now I can touch my scapula with ease. Thank you for this stretch!

I've only had one injury related to working out/weight lifting and it's been persistent for years. I was doing chin ups over 20 years ago and felt some discomfort suddenly but not sharply in my right elbow, outer forearm. It bothers me when doing curls or even squeezing my fist/pulling (things like starting the lawn mower. I stretch it, warm up extensively and apply topical rubs to the area but it just won't go away. I'd love to learn what the problem is but I've never been able to find out!

Hello! I have a question I haven-t been able to workout because of this popping noise that has happened. So a little bit more detail. I was deadlifting one day and then I went straight to doing pull ups and then a popping noise happened throughout my body. So now I have a hole where my rear delt use to be. I haven-t worked out in 2 months but it still hasn-t grown back. I-m just wondering what I-m dealing with and I don-t have health insurance to pay to check it out.

Worked on a computer for 20+ years now, and have always been into working out. Recently really started to focus on my posture, and holy hell my shoulders were literally rolled forward. Never even noticed until I did this.
I'll be doing this everyday from now on, and just bought a good posture corrector for during work.
You should get an app for all this stuff. Appreciate it man

So I-m assuming you do both shoulders? If not, wouldn-t that cause more of an imbalance? Also, so you retract the shoulder that is on the ground? Just trying to make sure before I do this. I-m also doing pec stretch and subscap per his recommendation from another video on tight internal rotators.

I'm a golfer with pain in my shoulder. my left shoulder hurts on the back swing and pretty much for any reason in that direction. Its hurts during workouts. but doing this exercise I was able to go the full 75%to the ground. will this still help my problem or is it something else?

Who would have thought that poor internal rotation causes rounding of the shoulder, we-re always told by Jeff we have to much internal rotation and we need to work on external rotation, just when you think you have it figured all out Jeff then uploads a vid, I give up -

Jeff should make series explaining nerve pain and entrapment and any excersises that could decompress and relieve those symptoms. Or maybe even know how you can tell if a nerve problem could be the cause rather than tendons, joints, muscles, etc
