Help For Your Shoulders "So like most other guys who frequently bench-press over 500 pounds,* I've had some issues with my shoulders. Nothing huge: just a couple of old injuries (multiple dislocations on the right, a close-call dislocation on the left), some poor mobility and habitual internal rotation. Since I'm now well into my third decade of strength training, and in the business of teaching people how to exercise for long-term health and fitness–and not just the momentary glory of a huge PR (Hey look, everyone, I'm squatting 450! I'm the best! I'm amazing!! I'm…in severe pain.)–I figured some time ago that I would need to address my shoulder issues before they became real crises.
Looked around. Talked to some people. Learned some moves. Experimented. Did some exercises. And came up with a program that seems to have worked."—Andrew Heffernan, Male Pattern Fitness
