Shoulder discomfort after working out

Should I go see a doctor or wait it out?

You need to see a gynecologist for that vagina of yours.

My advice... quit wacking it so much

Probably just minor tendinitis. No need to see a doctor, Anti-inflammatory and rest.

I recommend upping your weight by about 50%, especially on bench press. That should do the trick.

Could be problem with your labrum

Does sound like mild impingement... you can google & read about that on your own.

If pain is only a 1 out of 10, you probably shouldn't have to give up your workout (note/disclaimer: I'm not a doctor).

But you probably should make sure you're properly warming up your muscles and doing stretching / mobility work... Google "rotator cuff exercises" and try to spend 5 minutes or so doing one or more exercises that might help strengthen / stabilize your shoulder joints. Warming up with something like that might help you avoid injury when you do your main lifts.

Also, make sure you're focusing on good form when you lift. Don't give up your workout, but go with lighter weights for a week or two and focus on good form. Also, mind your range of motion and don't overdo it if you normally focus on that. For example, if I do upright rows, if I strain to get the weight to the highest point or pause at the high position for a moment or longer, I get a very mild impingement pain for a day or so. If I don't strain for the last inch or two of motion, I have no discomfort at all. Basically, be mindful of any motion that has your arms high so that you feel a strain on the top side of the shoulder... this may not be directly applicable to you, but is food for thought for you to possibly modify your approach, which might help keep your shoulder healthy so you won't have to take time off.

Ohh hey..

I'll be thinking of this post when I'm benching 285 for 3 sets of 6 later today.

Hoisted up 325 about 2 weeks ago.

let your body rest. I recommend skipping leg day.

Come at me, bro..

I'll trip you and watch you break a hip.

I'm gonna stomp your face short stack.

You won't be lifting anything but ice for your vagina when I'm done with you.
