Bicep tendon pain from seated shoulder flexion

Hi all 

Has anyone experienced anterior shoulder from seated shoulder flexion?  I seem to have aggravated the bicep tendon on the front of the shoulder from doing this and am now having to have an extended rest.

It seems a bit counter-intuitive to me but curious to know if anyone else has experienced this?

Thanks

Barry

No, but I injured my bicep tendon throwing a wheel barrow over a fence.

hi Barry it can....it is necesary to see also other exercises like pushup for example. keep in mind that feeling painduring one exercise does not mean that it is the cause. if for example you do not depress properly the shoulder blade during pushup you end on using more the bicep long head tendon.

Another problem can be related to the shoulder flexion technique, a wrong execution can be evaluated deeply from a posterior view...

Hi Alessandro

Thanks for your response. 

I'll post up some videos of both the pressup and active flexion  from posterior angle.

I'd appreciate your view on where I can improve.

Thanks

Hi Alessandro

This is set 4 of pressups on stage 4x9.  Are there some technical points I should improve / focus on.  Thanks!

You must have an accurate eye to check this but in some reps when you reverse the movement from th bottom the first thing that happens i your shoulder thats elevate. th shoulder should rmain depressed al the time. this can contribute to the shoulder problem. also check the anterior video for symmetrical work.

Ok thanks Alessandro.   I'll take things back a step or two and focus on the form points you mention.

Hi Alessandro

I have gone back a step in the pressups to try and maintain form.  Are these better?  Thanks

you must slow down the speed of the second part of the movement because with this one you cannot control it...

OK thanks - is that to say the portion of the movement lifting up from the ground?
