How to Bench Press Without Shoulder Pain

When people hurt their shoulder they make a giant mistake.

They avoid using it.

You cannot avoid functions of your joints if you want to beat pain. In fact avoiding certain motions not only prolongs pain but it sends neurological signals to your brain that there is a serious injury. This, again, will only prolong the injury.

Now, this is not to say that you shouldn’t take some time off from Pressing movements when you need it, you absolutely should for a short period of time.

However, it’s most likely that your shoulder pain is caused by bad technique. In this video I’ll show you the bad technique, and tell you how to fix it. Bad technique puts your joints in bad positions. Combine that with a weighted barbell and it’s a recipe for disaster.

You can avoid future shoulder pain by changing the pressing exercises you do. I’ll show you two amazing variations of the bench press we use here at Jacksonville Fitness Academy.

Both variations will hammer the chest, while keeping your shoulder in the safest position possible. That means they will build muscle while beating pain. You really can’t ask for much more than that in a movement.


This video will detail everything you need to know.
