Iv'e had shoulder pain for about six months now, the result of some extreme burpee exercises. I was convinced I'd need surgery. So your video popped up, I paused and did the exercises minus the stretch rope for about 10 minutes. Previously, when I would reached up at tip toe for an item, I would come down with shoulder agony. There's NO WAY I believe what has happened in 10 minutes, NO WAY. A little discomfort remains, but the agony has gone, and there I was thinking I'm just marking time till I can afford the surgery. Words can't describe how I feel. I am now subscribed, and I'm paying attention. THANKS A MILLION.
Shoulder Anatomy - 1:10 Pathophysiology (Reason for pain) - 1:42 Posture rehabilitation stretches 1) Doorway Stretch - 4:48 2) Foam roller stretch - 6:50 Though I advise supporting great medical staffs in youtube however you can, a bolster works almost as good as a foam roller. If not, buy a yoga mat and roll it accordingly Rotator Cuff Strenghtening (Shoulder abuse resistance training) 1) Scapular Pinches - 8:01 2) Y, T, A stomache facing back stretch - 9:04 3) External Rotation - 11:02 Low resistance/assistance version (no band) is lying to the side of your body you are pulling away from and resting your elbow on the side and just lifting a liter of liquid using mainly your shoulder with a fixed wrist position 4) Internal Rotation - 12:00 Low resistance/assistance method (no band) is a little more technical for this exercise. On a normal on your back sleeping position, lift a liter of liquid from an open arm position toward your chest, closing it. The technical part is how open your initial open position is. In normal comfort circumstance its usually 120-150 degrees and not 180 degress. For this exercise specifically, i recommend you follow the DPT's advice and use a band if you are new to the gym or exercise in general.
@@toneandtighten Ive been suffering myself but mine ended up as an associated symptom after a viral gastroenteritis attack can u believe? after whats been going on, the entire viral family sure has us by the balls, of course this was Norovirus and not the big cahuna C. Anyway that disease led to an on set of gastritis im already dealing with since last year due to inappropriate diet in uni. Eventually that cause me a mini lavatory lockdown which forced a bad posture from me for longer than usual that led to bursitis impingement. So while im stuck on lockdown, i researched and formatted your clips and provide easy reference for both myself and others. I repeat, if I may give advice, hopefully you can incorporate methods of relieving acute pain when its active because we all know when it is, its like back pain, it takes a while to relieve itself even if you are doing things right. What i found is mainly some gentle ball position greasing exercise (pendulum), adjusting rest on sitting and sleeping position, and your scapular pinches with the downward push being important even during attack. Thank you for your vids bruv. Many a shoulders are finally free from abuse #metooshouldermovement
I've watched three of your shoulder pain videos and only doing it for a bit already has been life changing. im so grateful. where has this channel been my whole life
just developed a shoulder pain as i was lifting a bicycle onto high rack on the wall a few months, pain is deep and I have been icing, but definitely work it through. this one along with Bob & Brad's videos, I found, very consistent and helpful. Going to practice these daily. Thanks so much for the post!
wanted to follow up with a strong precaution with the foam roller. as i was laying down on the foam roller as shown around the 7 minute mark, i lost my balance, fell on my right side where i had the impinged shoulder, i tried to get off the foam roller too. Felt a sharp pain on my low back, and the next day I have the symptoms of a herniated disc which i didn't know right away until I talked to my doctor. this was on 12/23/20. now attending a much more painful injury and hoping it will heal itself in 4-6 weeks without a need for surgery. But just wanted to caution anyone the risk of injuring yourself in other places as these exercises should be done with care and instructed. A lumbar disc can be herniated at any point and mine probably have some history. Still don't do what i do. Heal away!
@@BaskinTapkan Thanks for the wise information. I started having shoulder pain about a couple of months ago and it has been prohibiting me from doing the things I need to do effectively. Some days it causes so much discomfort and distress that I can’t even go 10 mins without constantly thinking about the pain and position of my shoulder . And I was wondering if these exercises work good ?
Guys, take care of your shoulders. If you hurt them, that means no more pull ups or push ups. I thought that I've injured my shoulders, since I was never giving them the attention that they deserve. But, in my case it was just tight muscles in my left shoulder. The pain disappeared after one week from starting doing the exercices in this video. Thank you so much for sharing such an awesome content.
Thank you for the great video, your time, effort and knowledge! I have been suffering from shoulder impingement for more than a year. I received all kind of medical intervention beside operation and I was still in pain. I tried your stretching and strengthening exercises and woala! My pain is still with me but it’s getting better. I’ll do these exercises on a regular basis. I hope I’ll get relief soon. Thanks again! Greetings from Germany.
The dorr stretches alone made a huge world of difference - I think I have put something out of whack in my shoulder whilst playing pit in water polo and have been suffering pain there for a few weeks now; this is hugely helpful. Thank you!
2 years later and your still helping people out. I just wanna say thank you so much. I was having a lot of pain in my shoulder all the time even during my sleep. But after doing exactly what you said in the video, it’s all gone now. My main issue was my posture. Again thank you.
I am 62 and have cerebral palsy and I have a lot of pain in my left shoulder Also my Life physios have told me to do exercises which I haven’t been able to do But I find your exercise is very helpful I’m going to download this video and keep on doing the exercises you are showing Thank you for making these videos to help people like me you’re a great guy
Excellent. Massive back shoulder pain (up into my neck, as well) the past three days... it's been unbearable. Did your exercise... Helped immediately, but the pain came back after I stopped. Will continue to do the movements you've recommended to see if things improve. Thanks.
I personally want to thank you for this episode. I am 52, and basically fit. I was diagnose with Hypothyroidism, and along with that came muscle cramps and my poor posture led to impingement and trapezoids knots in my back - these stretches push the shoulder and traps to soar but a relaxed mode. I have been putting on cold compress in the day and heating pad and elevation for the impinge shoulder. This stretch is now my go-to when I awake and hour before bed. Very nicely done and God - Bless you!
oohh...I am over the moon with so much joy since I have shoulder pain and you just gave me the most sound way to fix it. Where were you all this time man... Thank you....!!!
Hi Tone and Tight , I have chronic shoulder pain . I tried physio several times did not work . When I tried your exercises I felt better from the second day , so thank you very much Dr Mayada from the UK
I just tried the exercises and it worked. Wow! A whole year in pain and all i needed was stretching. But not just any stretching the right stretching and strengthening! Man I feel like a million bucks already! Thank you for explaining the anatomy, that helped me a ton as well to understand what the hell is wrong with me. Thank you thank you thank you.
I have watched more than 40 shoulder pain videos over the months and this is by far my favorite and most recommended video for shoulder pain and impingement. He takes you through stretch and then strengthen exercises that are simple and effective. Both my shoulders were grinding and in great pain, my left now is close to 100% and the right is still lagging but I think It to will be 100% if I continue with these exercises over the course of another few weeks to a month. Thanks for this great video!
Cory Everson weight training 40 yrs added gym membership = good shape . Knocked shoulder blade out of socket - ouch! Thank You for stretches to secure free movement of joint and end to pain. Thank You!
Hi Jared, I just had a shoulder injury last week where I torn supraspinatus on the right shoulder during dumbel pullover, its slowly healingbut in the meantime I tried these stretches just now & I already feel great. Thank you so much for sharing this valuable info
Awesome, Hamza! Sorry to hear about your injury but I'm excited these have helped! Just keep resistance super light for the next week or two and slowly increase as you heal. Nice job!
Dear Dr. Jared, Thanks a million. I had my shoulder in pain for several months and now and your suggestions helped me regain my arm functionality. It took three weeks to get full mobility but the pain was relieved in the first week. Thanks a lot.
You helped a lot . I woke up and had a shoulder pain and was trying to find how to fix my posture last week and now you helped me reduce the pain and gave me advice and information .Thanks a lot
Thank you so much for this video! I got shoulder impingement from improper shoulder rotation during weightlifting. I did the exercises in this video once and it already has reduced so much of my discomfort.
Hi. May I ask what kind of weightlifting you did and how your shoulder rotation was improper? I have the same issue for a few weeks now. I always thought you need to external rotate your shoulders before a a lift to stabilize the shoulders. I would really appreciate an answer. Thanks in regard.
Amazing. Just tried to cooy your movements while sitting and watching this video and it already helped relieve my pain. Pain which developed from being hyper active to kind of sedentary during the long lockdowns. Thanks for giving me hope
Thank you! I liked the logical process you took for this. Do the external and internal rotation exercises hit all the rotator cuff muscles? I’ve been doing these daily for a month. My shoulder is much improved but I still have some impingement pain, especially if I move my arm quickly.
Great video! Over the last 3 months I’ve been having impingement issues so I’ve been watching a lot of vids, one thing I’ve noticed is nobody really mentions truck driving as a very good reason for poor posture and heavy use of arms when steering. I say this cuz my exact situation been driving garbage truck for 23 years and it’s catching up to me, good exercising and stretching like seen here are helping ❤
The fomeroller exercise almost instantly relieved the pain! It's also excellent for improving the flexibility of back and muscles. Thanks really grateful for this 🙏
Thank you for making this video. You have answered so many questions i have had for years and years. You are a genuine expert and thank you again for sharing your knowledge.
You just saved my life in under an hour. My right shoulder was bothering me for weeks. I'm sure it's a combination of my bad posture and lack of exercise.... Probably sleeping position also. Thank you... Thank you.... Thank you!
Oh man I hope this works. Had a fall running in the dark a month ago and my shoulder has been sore since. The doorway stretches are very accessible. I actually found myself doing these instinctually prior to seeing the TH-cam video. Pretty exciting to consider the foam roller excersizes. The ideas to get minimal equipment and do this at home is a good way to keep the workout part of my daily routine with or without the trip to the gym. Got me considering if my mattress is too soft...hmmm. Great help explaining and identifying the causes for impingement. Pretty sure that is the issue for me. I feel like yeah, on the mend faster than before. Thanks!
I've been dealing with shoulder pain for weeks. I did these exercises last night, actually everything but the band exercises because I don't have those. This morning, my shoulder already feels a lot better. Thank you!
Just wanted to leave a comment to thank you for this excellent video. In the past, I went through PT for my rotator where I learned similar exercises. You’ve captured and explained them so well, and I watch it every few months as a refresher. Quick Q: what’s your take on frequency? For active PT and also maintenance.
Jared, I'm a side sleeper!!!!!! I really appreciate this, I need to be disciplined and do these. I learned them in physical therapy. Laying on my bed and pushing a pillow into the wall then into my side helps a lot. I struggle with the strengthening exercises because I have a seriously messed up neck, so with any movements, muscles in my shoulders, neck and shoulder blades are trying to protect my poor neck; they tighten, and spasm, ugh!! But I NEED to stretch!!! Thank you, thank you, dear Jared! ❤
What a kind comment; thank you so much, Tara! I'm sorry to hear about your neck. Don't know if you've seen this one yet, but perhaps these exercises can help you out: th-cam.com/video/9PC9Mn0VO00/w-d-xo.html I hope you feel better soon!
This is very good information. I actually have a little shoulder pain and I have been doing some of the exercises you showed but other are new and I will apply it. Thank you, good man.
Thanks for the Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Schallingora Font Storage Scheme (should be on google have a look)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for getting rid of your shoulder pain minus the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate at last got excellent success with it.
thank you so so much,,, after watching several other videos,,, I finally found a complete and effective set of exercises... done it once and am already feeling a lot better..
Thank you again, after your video on lower back pain helped me came back for a lingering shoulder pain, the doorway stretches and the in/out arm/shoulder exercises worked, felt relief after one session!
Doing the door exercises (and I've looke at other videos) my symptoms presented as bursitis arthritis and tendonitis but after that door exercise my shoulder - popped- and it's like everything has re set, some residual issues but quite amazing - many thanks
The doorway exercises really helped. On each first set, the pain in my shoulder was pretty substantial, but the pain gradually lessened with the second and third set. How many times a day can I do these stretching exercises? Thank you for posting these!
@@deborahnickrand4538 cold presses help too, but whatever I do, sleeping usually reverses it. Had to learn to not sleep on my side. It is getting better, but slowly.
I've been having shoulder pain for nearly two weeks now due to too much kettle bell exercise, I like your video will be doing it tomorrow. Thanks for great video.
Hi this video is really help me to practice in my shoulder pain because I can not rotating my right shoulder I suffering a lot went physiotherapist but doesn’t help much I love the way u explaining . Thanks most welcome to see more healthy videos
wow so I followed along and my shoulder felt relief! Thank you. Can I do this morning and night? Or just stretch after training at the gym? and do warm ups like you showed at the end of the video?
Clear explanation. Simple exercises. Straight to the point. I am experiencing severe pain in my left shoulder. I will start doing it and post my feedback
Thank you. Bad left shoulder, rotator repaired, still bad, found some of your fixes through trial and error. Will need to try some of your other fixes. Thanks again. Jack
Hi Jared, thanks for the great advice, just one question: How often should exercises like this be done in any given week? once a week? every three days? Thanks
I tried the door exercises and floor exercises and felt such a tremendous improvement , when i get to the gym next i will do the internal/external rotations, thank you so much!!
Thank you so much, it is amazing I have very much pain in my right shoulder it is just in the socket I can’t even hold both my hands at my back I can’t even tie my hair now I don’t know what to do, I will surely try this exercise, thank you so much. You are great 👍
Can't tell if mine is this or more deltoid tendons. This has been going for years, now. Truthfully, I can't see these doing any help; usually they aggravate it more. Maybe initial healing needs to happen. I believe the cause is from sleeping on my side. The first time switching sides (yesterday) had an immediate effect; I could at least lift my arm the next morning (which was shocking (no pun)). The dooming action was roller painting a ceiling - almost didn't even finish the job. Will try to follow up with results.
I have been dealing with this Shoulder Impingement for the past 6months, my primary doctor prescribed me a ton of painkillers and said it would go away on its own. After taking the pills a couple of times, I stopped because it was getting high, and after it wore off the pain was the same. After trying these exercises I can feel some relief and it's only my 1st try. Thanks for making its video and sharing it.
Many thanks. I went to a doctor who did an x-ray and said I had arthritis. He said there is no gap caused by arthritis. My shoulder pain was not gradual, it appeared over night and was excruciating. The trouble was range. Arthritis does not affect the range as I was experiencing. No, after watching TH-cam and reading on the internet, I believe I have impingement. My new doctor is going to do an ultrasound but has not told why. So I looked up ultrasound and impingement and I believe the doc is looking at impingement. I will now begin your exercises because I looked at my posture and I am rounding as you have shown. Thank you because when I have delt with this, I can sleep better and do weight training again. God bless
I want to tell you how quick your exercises worked. I did the first door exercise and the first attempt hurt, but I have been in so much pain since August last year, I just held my ground. Another reason is because I could actually feel the stretch you talked about but, more, I could feel the joint opening up. I did this three times. The last had very very little pain. The second door exercise hurt proper, so I just did a small step inside. I did both door exercises three times and held for 15-20 seconds. The other exercise is the turning the shoulders out. Again I felt stretch and the joint opening. I had my best night sleep since August. I even slept painless on my left shoulder. I am now doing house activities using my left shoulder. The second door exercise is sore but is getting less pain. I also pushed out 3 reps of 20 push ups which I could only muster 10. The pain is worth it. God bless
My pecs are tight and shoulders are pronated, they roll in, I bet you're just super tight there. I'd roll a lacrosse ball over the chest to help it release. You can do it right in a doorway. Then add the stretch you were doing. Hope it's gotten better.
Thank you so much... I've been going to different PT's (Doctor Referrals, Athletico..etc...) and out of pocket its been close to a Thousand bucks to literally do all of the exercises you just demonstrated! Thank you for sharing these as you had a couple that the PT's didn't have me do...Now I can stop paying them and watch your video if I forget any of the moves... Thank you!!
My trainer has me doing some of these.👍 However on the internal/external rotation, he has me keep a small ball or rolled up towel tucked between my elbow and my side to ensure correct form (it is annoying and it keeps dropping, so it is interruptive). I noticed you don’t show this. Can I get rid of the ball and still make improvements?
Hi Carrie! The towel is "the great equalizer"! I love that trick because it keeps every rep honest! The mistake people often make with the towel is that it's too skinny and you hold your elbow in too close to your side. The natural plane of the shoulder is about 15 degrees from parallel to the floor - meaning naturally your arm hangs with your elbow out from your side a little bit. I typically recommend about a 4-inch towel while doing these reps and make sure that your hand finishes higher than it started (finishing position is above your belly button). Hope that helps and good luck!
you keep dropping it because you try to cheat, so just keep that towel tucked in and make sure it won't drop, that way you know you do it right. Don't try to find an easy way
This is the most beneficial and educational idea I’ve seen so far regarding this particular issues. Definitely subscribing. Thanks a lot this help so much!
hello!tone please let me knw one thing, most of time i spend my time in cricketing filed. but whenever im going to throw ball than suddenly pain started in my shoulder..what is that thing?how to recover that thing?
Whenever I hear throwing pain my mind goes to labrum and rotator cuff. You might find this helpful: th-cam.com/video/oMJwwJWSxMA/w-d-xo.html Good luck!
Iv had bad arm for a year after covid booster jab but I followed your exercises and things are getting a lot better and I'm 73 only been doing them for week but already iv notice a big improvement iv looked at lot of your videos and big help thanks a lot because I never thought it would get better.

Shoulder Anatomy - 1:10

You helped a lot . I woke up and had a shoulder pain and was trying to find how to fix my posture last week and now you helped me reduce the pain and gave me advice and information .Thanks a lot
You are so welcome! I am happy to hear that and thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for this video! I got shoulder impingement from improper shoulder rotation during weightlifting. I did the exercises in this video once and it already has reduced so much of my discomfort.
You are welcome! I am so glad these exercises have helped relieve pain so quickly!
Hi. May I ask what kind of weightlifting you did and how your shoulder rotation was improper? I have the same issue for a few weeks now. I always thought you need to external rotate your shoulders before a a lift to stabilize the shoulders. I would really appreciate an answer. Thanks in regard.
Amazing. Just tried to cooy your movements while sitting and watching this video and it already helped relieve my pain. Pain which developed from being hyper active to kind of sedentary during the long lockdowns. Thanks for giving me hope
You are so welcome! I am glad these are helping!
Thank you! I liked the logical process you took for this. Do the external and internal rotation exercises hit all the rotator cuff muscles? I’ve been doing these daily for a month. My shoulder is much improved but I still have some impingement pain, especially if I move my arm quickly.
Same goes to me..stil pain
These rotator cuff stretches of yours are so good my impinged shoulder feels slightly better after doing just the X y & a stretches
Wonderful to hear and thanks for sharing!
Great video! Over the last 3 months I’ve been having impingement issues so I’ve been watching a lot of vids, one thing I’ve noticed is nobody really mentions truck driving as a very good reason for poor posture and heavy use of arms when steering. I say this cuz my exact situation been driving garbage truck for 23 years and it’s catching up to me, good exercising and stretching like seen here are helping ❤
Glad to hear!
The fomeroller exercise almost instantly relieved the pain! It's also excellent for improving the flexibility of back and muscles. Thanks really grateful for this 🙏
Great to hear! Thanks for sharing!
I must have watched and tried about 20 of these videos so far, but this one and the foam roller stretch in particular did the trick🎉
Great video! Recently came down with impingement in my left shoulder. Felt immediate relief after the scapular pinches. Thank you
Wonderful! You are so welcome!
This works I’ve been on lockdown and I messed up my shoulder benching wrong and my shoulder is at 85 percent already thank you 🙏🏽
You are welcome, jayden Bryant! I am sorry to hear about your shoulder pain but I am glad this is helping you!
Thank you for making this video. You have answered so many questions i have had for years and years. You are a genuine expert and thank you again for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much! I am happy to help!
For years and years...but didn't think about going to a professional for an advice though? Haha
@@Darkest_Soul_187 the info here was presented in such a way that the things I have learned over the years actually clicked together and make sense.
You just saved my life in under an hour. My right shoulder was bothering me for weeks. I'm sure it's a combination of my bad posture and lack of exercise.... Probably sleeping position also.
Thank you... Thank you.... Thank you!
You are so welcome, DON Perry! I am so happy to hear that!
Oh man I hope this works. Had a fall running in the dark a month ago and my shoulder has been sore since. The doorway stretches are very accessible. I actually found myself doing these instinctually prior to seeing the TH-cam video. Pretty exciting to consider the foam roller excersizes. The ideas to get minimal equipment and do this at home is a good way to keep the workout part of my daily routine with or without the trip to the gym. Got me considering if my mattress is too soft...hmmm. Great help explaining and identifying the causes for impingement. Pretty sure that is the issue for me. I feel like yeah, on the mend faster than before. Thanks!
Thanks so much for your comment and you are welcome! I hope these exercises help you out.
Great advice. Our tendency is to overlook the importance of stretching. Thank you.
You are welcome, CAFETERO777! I hope this helps you!
I've been dealing with shoulder pain for weeks. I did these exercises last night, actually everything but the band exercises because I don't have those. This morning, my shoulder already feels a lot better. Thank you!
Oh, that is such good news! Thanks for sharing, Amanda!
Ya i also try this is very nice
I am from india
You are a savior!
I feel better already.
I will keep doing all these stretches and exercises.
Big thank you!
You're so welcome!
Awesome instructions. In combination, all of these actions resolved my shoulder issues. Thank you very much.
You're welcome!
Just wanted to leave a comment to thank you for this excellent video. In the past, I went through PT for my rotator where I learned similar exercises. You’ve captured and explained them so well, and I watch it every few months as a refresher.
Quick Q: what’s your take on frequency? For active PT and also maintenance.
Jared, I'm a side sleeper!!!!!!
I really appreciate this, I need to be disciplined and do these. I learned them in physical therapy.
Laying on my bed and pushing a pillow into the wall then into my side helps a lot.
I struggle with the strengthening exercises because I have a seriously messed up neck, so with any movements, muscles in my shoulders, neck and shoulder blades are trying to protect my poor neck; they tighten, and spasm, ugh!! But I NEED to stretch!!! Thank you, thank you, dear Jared! ❤
What a kind comment; thank you so much, Tara! I'm sorry to hear about your neck. Don't know if you've seen this one yet, but perhaps these exercises can help you out: th-cam.com/video/9PC9Mn0VO00/w-d-xo.html I hope you feel better soon!
I will definetly try them out!
Probably the best exercises to eliminate shoulder pain I've seen so far! Thank you Tone and Tighten. You have my subscription!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad you found this video helpful and thank you for subscribing!
I am suffering from this problem more then one year. You are going to be a big help for me.
Thank you! I really hope this helps you out!
This is very good information. I actually have a little shoulder pain and I have been doing some of the exercises you showed but other are new and I will apply it. Thank you, good man.
You are very welcome!
I have infraspinatotus injury where external rotation of shoulder causes pain. I need exercise of those muscle.
Thank you for all this information! It’s exactly what I need right now.
You are welcome, Kathy! I hope it is helpful!
Thanks for the Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Schallingora Font Storage Scheme (should be on google have a look)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for getting rid of your shoulder pain minus the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate at last got excellent success with it.
thank you for those tips for rotator cuff impingement stretches i will try them, i cannot lift one of my hand all the way.
You're so welcome! I hope they help!
I have the same thing. It stinks. Sometimes right under my left shoulder blade. Smh miss the gym.
thank you so so much,,, after watching several other videos,,, I finally found a complete and effective set of exercises... done it once and am already feeling a lot better..
You are welcome! I am happy to hear these were effective for you and you are feeling better!
Thank you again, after your video on lower back pain helped me came back for a lingering shoulder pain, the doorway stretches and the in/out arm/shoulder exercises worked, felt relief after one session!
You are welcome! I am so glad to hear that!
Doing the door exercises (and I've looke at other videos) my symptoms presented as bursitis arthritis and tendonitis but after that door exercise my shoulder - popped- and it's like everything has re set, some residual issues but quite amazing - many thanks
Awesome! You are welcome, nnrd m!
thanks! helped my shoulder immediately.
Great, walmartinrx! You are welcome! I am glad this helped and thanks for sharing!
The doorway exercises really helped. On each first set, the pain in my shoulder was pretty substantial, but the pain gradually lessened with the second and third set. How many times a day can I do these stretching exercises? Thank you for posting these!
i am hoping the same result---am in a lot of `pain````
@@deborahnickrand4538 cold presses help too, but whatever I do, sleeping usually reverses it. Had to learn to not sleep on my side. It is getting better, but slowly.
I've been having shoulder pain for nearly two weeks now due to too much kettle bell exercise, I like your video will be doing it tomorrow. Thanks for great video.
You are welcome, Elizabeth! I hope it helps your pain!
Hi this video is really help me to practice in my shoulder pain because I can not rotating my right shoulder I suffering a lot went physiotherapist but doesn’t help much I love the way u explaining . Thanks most welcome to see more healthy videos
You are welcome, Indra! I am glad it is helping you!
Impossible to do the doorway stretches if you have serious impingement
Then try a little bit at a time. Hope you have had some relief
wow so I followed along and my shoulder felt relief! Thank you. Can I do this morning and night? Or just stretch after training at the gym? and do warm ups like you showed at the end of the video?
If it helps why not do all
I did wall push ups 2 months ago and I have shoulder pain till now. Its hurts when I raise my hand especially when I lay down
Clear explanation. Simple exercises. Straight to the point. I am experiencing severe pain in my left shoulder. I will start doing it and post my feedback
Thank you, Raju Kumar S! I appreciate the positive feedback and I hope this helps you!
Thank you. Bad left shoulder, rotator repaired, still bad, found some of your fixes through trial and error. Will need to try some of your other fixes. Thanks again. Jack
You are welcome, Jack! I hope they help!
Hi Jared, thanks for the great advice, just one question: How often should exercises like this be done in any given week? once a week? every three days? Thanks
Consistency is key here! At least 3 days a week would be good.
@@toneandtighten Thanks!
Thank you so much, this has been a great video and fairly easy exercises.
Great, Sheila Ber! You are very welcome! I hope this helps you!

Habib - you are welcome! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
I tried the door exercises and floor exercises and felt such a tremendous improvement , when i get to the gym next i will do the internal/external rotations, thank you so much!!
Great to hear!
Thank you so much, it is amazing I have very much pain in my right shoulder it is just in the socket I can’t even hold both my hands at my back I can’t even tie my hair now I don’t know what to do, I will surely try this exercise, thank you so much. You are great 👍
You're so welcome! I hope these help and you start to feel better soon!
This is crazy!! After trying the door was exercise my shoulders actually felt a little bit better ✨😭 I’ve been in pain for weeks thanks a lot sir
I am so glad to hear that, Troy! Thanks for sharing!
What about impingement from a fall?
@Don Juan Matus what about shoulder pain from training?
Can't tell if mine is this or more deltoid tendons. This has been going for years, now.
Truthfully, I can't see these doing any help; usually they aggravate it more. Maybe initial healing needs to happen.
I believe the cause is from sleeping on my side. The first time switching sides (yesterday) had an immediate effect; I could at least lift my arm the next morning (which was shocking (no pun)).
The dooming action was roller painting a ceiling - almost didn't even finish the job.
Will try to follow up with results.
Sorry to hear about your pain, Lou. You might benefit more initially from some gentle shoulder stretching: th-cam.com/video/1PdyCdtkcGk/w-d-xo.html
I have been dealing with this Shoulder Impingement for the past 6months, my primary doctor prescribed me a ton of painkillers and said it would go away on its own. After taking the pills a couple of times, I stopped because it was getting high, and after it wore off the pain was the same. After trying these exercises I can feel some relief and it's only my 1st try.
Thanks for making its video and sharing it.
You are welcome! I hope you continue to feel some relief!
wow what a relief
thank you so much. may god bless you.
So glad this was helpful for you!
Such an informative and helpful video!! Thank you!! Great exercises I am going to incorporate into my life.
You are welcome, Becky F! I am glad you liked it and I hope you find it helpful!
Shoulders: 4:58 and 8:25
Back: 9:04
I would like him this experience exercise
I'm lucky to meet this lesson, for this is the problem I'm facing! Thanks.
Many thanks. I went to a doctor who did an x-ray and said I had arthritis. He said there is no gap caused by arthritis. My shoulder pain was not gradual, it appeared over night and was excruciating. The trouble was range. Arthritis does not affect the range as I was experiencing. No, after watching TH-cam and reading on the internet, I believe I have impingement. My new doctor is going to do an ultrasound but has not told why. So I looked up ultrasound and impingement and I believe the doc is looking at impingement. I will now begin your exercises because I looked at my posture and I am rounding as you have shown. Thank you because when I have delt with this, I can sleep better and do weight training again. God bless
You are welcome! I hope you continue to feel better!
I want to tell you how quick your exercises worked. I did the first door exercise and the first attempt hurt, but I have been in so much pain since August last year, I just held my ground. Another reason is because I could actually feel the stretch you talked about but, more, I could feel the joint opening up. I did this three times. The last had very very little pain. The second door exercise hurt proper, so I just did a small step inside. I did both door exercises three times and held for 15-20 seconds. The other exercise is the turning the shoulders out. Again I felt stretch and the joint opening. I had my best night sleep since August. I even slept painless on my left shoulder. I am now doing house activities using my left shoulder. The second door exercise is sore but is getting less pain. I also pushed out 3 reps of 20 push ups which I could only muster 10. The pain is worth it. God bless
Thanks a lot! And also now I know how I hurt my shoulder recently....
You are welcome, Igor Khomenko! I hope you start feeling better soon!
man i love yours videos , keep it up man 👌
Thanks so much, Avihai! This comment totally made my day! I'm glad I can share things that help people to feel better. God bless!
I k R!!! they are AWESOME!
Is it normal that during the stretch I feel like my chest is about to rip apart
This made me laugh 🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣
Its your pec muscles, but you’re going at it too hard. Lighten up a bit. You just want to feel a comfortable stretch.
My pecs are tight and shoulders are pronated, they roll in, I bet you're just super tight there. I'd roll a lacrosse ball over the chest to help it release. You can do it right in a doorway. Then add the stretch you were doing. Hope it's gotten better.
Thank you so much... I've been going to different PT's (Doctor Referrals, Athletico..etc...) and out of pocket its been close to a Thousand bucks to literally do all of the exercises you just demonstrated! Thank you for sharing these as you had a couple that the PT's didn't have me do...Now I can stop paying them and watch your video if I forget any of the moves... Thank you!!
You are welcome! I am so glad you are finding these helpful and thanks for sharing!
Thanks man i had shoulder pain for more than six months and its getting better now with your help.
Great to hear and thank you for sharing!
My trainer has me doing some of these.👍 However on the internal/external rotation, he has me keep a small ball or rolled up towel tucked between my elbow and my side to ensure correct form (it is annoying and it keeps dropping, so it is interruptive). I noticed you don’t show this. Can I get rid of the ball and still make improvements?
Hi Carrie! The towel is "the great equalizer"! I love that trick because it keeps every rep honest! The mistake people often make with the towel is that it's too skinny and you hold your elbow in too close to your side. The natural plane of the shoulder is about 15 degrees from parallel to the floor - meaning naturally your arm hangs with your elbow out from your side a little bit. I typically recommend about a 4-inch towel while doing these reps and make sure that your hand finishes higher than it started (finishing position is above your belly button). Hope that helps and good luck!
you keep dropping it because you try to cheat, so just keep that towel tucked in and make sure it won't drop, that way you know you do it right. Don't try to find an easy way
Thank you sir!
You're very welcome, Promise Omoigui! I hope they help you! Thanks for commenting.
