Top Four Pressing Exercises When You Have Painful Shoulders

disclaimer: these do not take the place of a good clinician who can assess what’s going on, WHILE you continue to strength train.

But if you do have occasional shoulder pain or especially if it comes up in certain exercises or positions, these are usually my go-to’s for safe pressing without pain.

All of them allow you to adjust the angle really well to what feels good on your shoulder.

I’ve found that is a huge factor for being able to train around an injury or flare up.

💥Ring Push Ups- you can walk your body up or down to decrease or increase the difficulty. The rings feel really smooth on cranky shoulders.

💥Landmine Presses- it’s an overhead press but not really. That slightly forward angle feels great instead of going fully overhead.

💥Kettlebell 1-Arm Presses- similar to the rings, you can move the bell around your shoulder as it goes up in a really smooth way. Plus going one arm at a time helps improve any imbalances.

💥V-Up Presses- you can adjust the angle of your body to get more or less overhead. Plus the V-Up position gets some bonus core work 👌
