Folks,

Iam having trouble doing any decent workout for shoulders. I always seem suffer from pinched nerve anytime I attempt shoulder excercises. If I ignore and push through, I am practically incapacitated around the neck region, unable to turn freely.

It has gotten worse in the last year or so and Ive become very tentative when it comes to shoulders. Since Ive been deligently working out over a year, Iam starting to notice lack of balance around my neck and shoulder area as a result of this.

How do I get over the pinch nerve problem? My form is ok.. I just cant seem to lift heavy without pinching. Physicaly I know I can lift a lot more than what I do now. Please advice...

A doctor might be able to help you with that pinched nerve issue.

Are you sure it's a pinched nerve? Shoulders are complicted areas and a million things could be wrong, you should go to a doctor or sports physio really

Thanks. I dont really know the medical terminology. All I know is when I get pinched, especially lifting heavy, I wont be able to turn my head without pain.

It will last 2 to 3 days and then things will be normal. Will talk to a doc next time
