Hurting shoulder when bench

[brahh67]

When I bench only does my shoulder hurt. I have no issue doing any other exercise. What can this be ? Should I go see physio?

Think about how you bench and if the form is poor correct it

congrats, you have a torn rotator cuff

if you continue to bench, especially heavy it will tear enough where you will need surgery

for now i would lay off benching and militaries for a while. let the shoulder heal, it will take a while

Every single injury, tweak or strain I've ever had has been down to poor form.

Might be a torn rotator cuff. I would book an appointment with a good sports therapist and get it professionally checked out

Probably your form/technique is a little off.
When you lower the bar make sure to pull your shoulders back (and down) and tuck in your elbows slightly and when you push the bar up don't let your elbows completely flare out.

Get it looked at. I have had a bad shoulder now for 3 years. It really sucks.
