    Left shoulder pain

    Get a postural analysis and balance your training, bare minimum 1:1 horizontal extension to flexion. Even better 2:1. What school do you go to? In an attempt not to see a doc check to see if you have an exercise physiology program and have one of the phd's take a look at your posture.

    Left shoulder pops out during bench

    Does the gh actually sublux, or is it just a popping feeling? I'm assuming its a subluxation. If it truly "pops out," dislocates, you probably would not be posting about it because you would have seen a doctor. If it is subluxing you potentially have some supporting structure issues going on...

    Cage press question

    Supposed to what? Activate your traps? Regardless of what your doing the trap upper and lower fibers will be active or the scap won't move and you will not be able to abduct past 90 degrees.

    Cage press question

    You don't necessarily need to lean in, any abduction movement involving both the gh and scapulothoracic joint (beyond 90 degrees of pure gh abduction) will involve the upper and lower trap fibers. It comes as a by product of force coupling to create scapulohumeral rhythm.

    Cage press question

    Are you talking as far as an overhead pin press or just standard standing OHP? I wouldn't advise using the smith really for anything due to the fixed bar path, moose referred to. Just learn how to clean, easier said then done, but still it'll benefit you in the long run and you won't need a rack.

    The Crow and the Pitcher A CROW perishing with thirst saw a pitcher, and hoping to find water, flew to it with delight. When he reached it, he discovered to his grief that it contained so little water that he could not possibly get at it. He tried everything he could think of to reach the...

    How much rest do yih need for strength

    The type of program and phase of said program will determine how many rest days you will take, if any at all. Undulation of intensities and volume as well as planned overreaching and de-loading play a large roll in frequency. There really is no set number of days of rest that are needed it will...

    CSCS certification requirments!?!?

    Speaking from the other side of the fence I am in complete agreement, just like in anything you get out of it what you put in. The range of knowledge in the classroom is staggering. As you have said, I feel its getting worse and a bachelors really doesn't mean much anymore. I feel, and see, that...

    Mass muscle training for the taller man???

    1/2 squats regardless of lever length will be "harder" on the knees then a full squat. Cutting the squat short results in an anterior dominate lift, which itself will eventually cause problems strengthening the common ADL induced anterior/posterior imbalance. Cutting the squat short never allows...

    Compound shoulder exercise

    I don't believe the volume or intensity he would be using as a warm-up or for corrective exercise would disqualify it from being used prior to heavy pressing or any lift.
