re: Bench pressing and shoulder pain

Went back to the gym yesterday. I could do chest exercises with dumbbells. It wasn’t painless but definitely manageable. I did super light shoulder press with really zero discomfort. Incline hammer was completely fine. It’s all when I do bench press. Wondering if maybe I just tweaked some muscle in the upper chest.

Mine was the same way. I switched from barbell to dumbbell presses because was bearable. We’re getting older and there’s no shame in taking a break to get checked out. I had surgery in February and I’m 6 weeks in back at the gym.

Might not be a bad idea to try a floor press or just modify your range while you still feel it a little
