have you guys experienced this while doing close grip bench presses with the straight bar...if so, what do you do to correct this..
 
Try to prevent your shoulder girdle from coming off the bench... I know this causes me some discomfort...
Also squeeze your shoulder blades together (this helps keep your shoulder girdle from moving)
Thanks
 
A lot of guys will bench much more often than they work their back . The pecs will eventually start to pull the shoulders too far forward and cause pain. I just dealt with this, had to quit lifting for a while because of it. My sports doc said to work back twice as often as chest. I tried it and the pain left. I hope this helps.
 
Thanks...both are good ideas and i will trey both...i just started to work my back regularly and that is helping also....

Funny thing... I actually had the exact same issue as christ.... DONT FORGET TO WORK YOUR BACK OR YOU WILL TURN INTO A HUNCHBACK!
 
I have the issues whenever I bench also...I go heavy all the time and refuse to train light...to me I train heavy...I do 3 sets of 5-6 ove 300 on flat, incline and decline.....I will only use dumbells if I am training for shape...I am into strength and power and I refuse once again as I said to go light....light to me that is....

If you want to train really heavy, I sugest replacing your standard elbow out 'bodybuilder' style bench with a safer powerlifter sytle bench press. Tuck your elbows into your side when bringing the weight down, arch your back(with your ass still on the bench), squish your shoulder blades together and drive with your feet...
Do a search on PL style bench.. It will take a lot of the stress off your rotator cuffs.
Thanks

Could be an AC impingement too.
 
An AC what? I was reading the ed coan book and I am going to incorporate his movements as stated above by Dr. Bones.....I hope that will help me out, by the end of january, I want to attempt 500 pounds on the bench.....also, any idea when to wear a bench shirt...i know 5 bills is not a lot, but i was curious about the shirt thing...dont want to blow a shoulder if my tendons are not keeping up with the rest of me...

Shoulder Pain:
The actual shoulder features a wide as well as versatile range of flexion. When a thing goes wrong with all your shoulder, it hampers your capability to move freely which enable it to cause lots of pain as well as discomfort.
The shoulder joint could be the most mobile joint body includes.
Its movements get forward as well as backward and also allows the particular arm to go in some sort of circular movements, and to go up and far from the physique.
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint that has three main bones:
• The humerus (long arm bone)
• The clavicle (collarbone
• The scapula (the shoulder blade)
These bones are cushioned by a layer of cartilage. There are two main joints:
• The Acromioclavicular joint
• The Glenohumeral joint

Causes Shoulder Pain:
A number of aspects and conditions can contribute to shoulder pain.
The most predominant cause is rotator cuff tendinitis, a condition where the tendons are inflamed.
Referred pain: The result of injury to another location in your body - usually the neck or bicep.
Common causes of shoulder pain includes:
• Arthritis: OA, RA, SA
• Tendinitis
• Bursitis
• Torn cartilage, rotator cuff
• Pinched nerves
• Broken shoulder bone, arm
• Frozen, Dislocated, Separation shoulder
• Spinal cord injury
• Bone spurs


Prevention Shoulder Pain:

Normal shoulder exercises can help to stretch and also strengthen muscle tissues and rotating cuff tendons.
A therapist can explain to you how to try and do them properly.
Use of ice packs for quarter-hour after exercising to avoid future injuries.
After a bout involving bursitis or perhaps tendinitis, performing straightforward range-of-motion exercises every day can preserve you coming from getting iced shoulder.
Treatment:
Treatment will depend on the cause and severity of the shoulder pain and may include:
• Use of a sling or shoulder immobilizer
• Physical therapy
• Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs)
• Corticosteroids
• Surgery
• Arthroscopic surgery

This. For chest development go wide grip with elbows out and bar path to just under your neck...use tempo on eccentric and light weight. For heavy pressing use the PL technique as described earlier

All soft tissue injuries can be both prevented and healed through rest and blood flow. It is important to keep inflammation down during this process to allow for proper blood flow circulation. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to soft tissues to repair them, whether from injury or minor tears do to your work out regiment. The best way to get inflammation down is through cold compression wraps as both cold therapy and compression therapy are quick ways to reduce inflammation. To then speed up the recovery process, use a blood flow stimulator. These also create elasticity and if used before a workout they will help to prevent injuries. I use these products even when I don't have an injury as they not only prevent injury but also speed up the recovery in between workouts. Check out the link for the brand I use, or to learn more, they have a ton of info:

Kingbrand .com/shoulder_pain_treatment.php?REF=52PV76 , unfortunately I cannot post a link but this is definitely worth taking a look at, my gains have gone up, been injury free (of new injuries that is) and I've been able to finally heal my knee. There is a space inbetween Kingbrand and .com that needs to be removed.
 
Acute pain from recent injuries and other diseases can result in time off work, difficulty with participation in sports, and interfere with other normal day activities. By properly treating persistent pain, patients will be able to enjoy work, sports, and life in general more effectively.
