Hello everyone

 

I'm feeling an intense stretch in my rear delts in every pulling exercise and even while hanging.

Even though it's quite painful it's more like an incomfortable strecth than pure pain.

 

i'm seeing a physiotherapist for a contracture in the lats and she said that everything was now fine (i was at rest), straight after i go to training and i got this nasty stretch after having done sets of Scapula pulls (very basic stuff :(

 

Please let me know if you experienced something similar

I can't attempt to diagnose your issue, but I had a similar problem after my elbow surgery (osteoarthritis) and found that the lat stretches in Foundation were the magic bullet for me.

 

I've also noticed that sometimes when people hang they don't allow the natural intern/external rotation of the humorous to occur which can also cause odd sensations. Next time you hang you can experiment and see if a little more or less humeral rotation helps.

thank you so much for your time cole dano.

 

You're right ! when i rotate my humerus more inward it "stretches" a lot less but still a bit.

luckily i got foundation so i go for the strectches.

 

it happened yesterday after my workout and straight after i couldn't do any external rotation without pain,   but today it's fine. So in doubt should i go for a week of rest again ? what would you do ?

It's a good sign the pain goes away.
