... here is just my personal views ...

1. Don't do barbell presses, instead do dumbbell presses ...

2. Do shoulder warm-up all the time before each and every dumbbell presses routine in sets ...

3. Never workout or challenge with others or yourself doing heavier weights, but instead do more reps with the correct weights. This is when less is more, only move to heavier weights when you feel your shoulder can handle it as you progress - exp. 5rep x 10kg x 3set, then 10rep x 10kg x 3set, then only go for 5rep x 15kg x 3set, then 10rep x 15kg x 3set. You decrease or progress in weights depending on your shoulder handling and healing ...

4. Relax, take your time with each weight as you push and pull, and don't go in like a bull aftering the heaviest weights and finishing the fastest ...

5. Mobility of shoulder is just as important, work with other machine to help strengthen your shoulder muscle ...

... like I said above, its just my personal views and not a professional ones, best of luck in your workout ... smile.gif ...

I too always try to keep my workout balanced, however this impingment still happened.

But no worries, will try to fix this problem. Just want to let everyone know that this is a common problem with the sport (according to the physio). Just be careful and try to get it checked and fix as early as possible if you feel any pinch anywhere in the body. smile.gif

While exercise might be one of the causes to those posture injury, I think daily activity such as sitting for long time is something that more important to fix.

Do more pulling exercises?
Chin / Pull up, Lat pull down, Kroc roll, landmine row, barbell row, etc?
All these help develop rear delt somewhat.
