What fixed my bad shoulder impingement was physio bands, followed by dead hanging on a pull up bar, and finally Macebell 360s and steel clubs. No more pain, and bullet proof shoulders stronger than ever.
I've had impingement in both shoulders for years now, and have tried many different exercises without much relief, the only thing that worked for me is hanging from a pull-up bar, (best with neutral grip for static hanging or classic grip for swinging) for a few minutes which can be broken into shorter periods but should add up to at least 2-3 minutes for beginners, relieves about 60 percent of the pain on the first day, and gets better with time but you need to be consistent with it. There's a shoulder surgeon who wrote a book on this treatment after conducting trials on his patients and most resolved it without surgery just by hanging.
Yeah I agree mate, I’ve got a partial tear in supra spinatus and labrum, also bursitis. Hanging has made more difference than every other movement together. Also doing a sub scap release under armpit seems really good too.
I found you 4 days ago. I left a comment then removed it. I’ve done your exercises for the past 3 days...and I’m sitting here doing my own thing and just realized ...I have no pain right now!! So I came back just to let you know.....This is beyond me, bc for a year my shoulder has made me literally angry. It amazes me how someone like you can fix me and yet....obviously doesn’t even have this injury. . A million TYS!!!!
As a registered occupational therapist, this channel has been a blessing to me personally and professionally. Always solid content, brother. God bless you.
@Ilir Cami Depends on the setting you work in, but yes, TBI is a common diagnosis to see especially in the hospitals. As OTs, we tend to focus a lot on the upper extremities when it comes to biomechanics and rehab. But it’s only just a small percentage of the vast amount of areas we can address in this profession.
@Ilir Cami there are quite a bit of techniques we can use, and it depends on the setting and the specific task. But here is a link that talks about OT and TBI. Hope it helps! God bless www.aota.org/-/media/Corporate/Files/AboutOT/Professionals/WhatIsOT/RDP/Facts/Community%20Reintegration%20fact%20sheet.pdf
Hey, Trevor! You've saved my life! I'm a war veteran and I can't afford to spend money on a good trainer or decent physical therapist. God bless you for posting both this video and the pull-up videos. You're the best, man!
That's what is wrong with the mindset of our government. You are suffering while people who don't belong here are being coddled. You should have the absolute best health care/insurance that is possible, free of charge for the rest of your life. You signed that check! The check. You shouldn't have to worry about the cost of any of it.
I see this was from a while ago but have you gone to the VA? You can fill out the paperwork and submit online for disabilities. Service isn’t the greatest but you will get your disability and they can always outsource treatment. You need to fight for your benefits my man.
Trev is the best. He’s right that if you actually do this the pain will go away. He’s my anti-doctor - meaning he keeps us from having to go to the doc
Former amateur gymnast now with left shoulder impingement. Been to PT about it several times, but nothing as simple and clear cut and seemingly effective as this set. Very promising so far!
I battled my shoulder pain for over 6 months I went from my doctor to my chiropractor to physical therapy with little to no success. I came across your video yesterday p.m. I performed the exercises outlined in your video while watching you do them and by the end of the video I was able to move my arm and shoulder past a point that it hadn't been in over six months! btw I am not an emotional person by any stretch, but this sense of relief made my eyes tear up a little. I say that only because you help to get rid of a problem I had and honestly thought I was stuck with forever. My shoulder is not at 100% YET but at least I know it can be thanks to you. I am continuing your exercises today and moving forward. THANK YOU! -RUDY
Simply hanging from a bar fixed my impingement issues. Suffered for six months before discovering this simple fix. Simply hang for 30 seconds three times before and after your workout. If you can’t support your body weight use a low bar so you can use your legs to support some of the weight.
@@SIIKAP1mine was horrible. Had to start hanging and started doing shoulder workouts with literally 15lb dumbbells and slowly worked my way back up for months
I've watched this video 3 times and will start incorporating the moves - I have calcification in both shoulders, bursitis, tears and degeneration going on.... 66 year old gal here who does not want cortisone shots or surgery, and I don't like to hear the words 'Frozen shoulder'!! I've started going to a gym since the end of January, and just actually using my muscles has made a big difference. BUT, I can't do your move #4 at all, I can't get my arms up and back onto the wall - I have a bit of scoliosis that I assume is causing the issue. I look forward to seeing how the rest of the moves work for me though. I plan on checking out your other videos as well, thanks for the help and advice!
I broke my leg with an axe and had to walk in a cast for several months. Long story short it messed up the way I walk a bit and that compounds my back pain for years and the past couple years or more I've been feeling real debilitated and like I'm fighting an enemy that knows my every move so I can never win merely inflame my back. My good arm has been dwindling away as I've had such a lack of range of movement and so much inflammation. These techniques are the only things I've been able to get RELIEF. SAVING ME LOTS OF STRESS AND PAIN. THANK YOU!
I’ve been having impingement issues with my right shoulder for the past few months. I didn’t have any serious pain but it was uncomfortable and didn’t seem like it was going away. I performed the 2nd exercise and heard a popping sound and no more pain. Simply amazing
I just wanted to say I tried these movements five or six different times while recovering from and injury. And boy oh boy my shoulders felt brand new when I started to train again. AMAZING videos, thank you and God bless
That first move IS THE TICKET! Thanks, bro and may God bless you... no other exercise rolls out the shoulder like that one.....I have been working on this for a long time and tried many things....amazing!
I did the wall angels you suggested on "Shoulder Bursitis? Fix your shoulder mechanics ASAP" and it worked. Immediately. I did three sets. Crazy. Thanks. These and your rotator cuff exercises are now a permanent part of my workout. I hated having bursitis. Cheers!
This is incredibly helpful. I've been doing a lot of pushups and heavy bench press and overhead press for years, and always left shoulder stability as an afterthought. The net effect of that is big front delts and rounding internally rotated shoulders. Well the bill has come due after 2 decades of neglect and I'm now getting impingement or a possible partial tear (ruled out complete tear, but MRI is slated). I'm now starting my rear delt/stability work thanks to this video and others contributing to collective PT wisdom. Definitely what RUclips was meant for.
I've had shoulder pain for 15 years from jackhammering, heavy lifting, shoveling, etc.. I Thought it was a tendon tear (haven't had professional help for it] but after trying these exercises it's definitely targeting that long term painful area. Thank you!
Trevor you are a life saver. Shoulder pain in the last few weeks has been keeping me up at night and I really don't recall injuring my shoulder. Thank you for putting this kind of content out there for all of us to use. Your generosity is saving me personally money as i have to meet my deductible before my insurance will help with anything and going to see a physical therapist is at least a 100 bucks a pop. $5000 deductible. So I am grateful. Thank you!
Hi Trevor, I have battling shoulder impingement pain for more than a year. I was just about ready to see a physical therapist but came upon your video about a week ago. I carefully watched your video 2 - 3 times and wrote down your exact instruction. I completed fixes 1 - 5 every other day as you suggested. After day 2 I was feeling much better and after day 3 I was amazed at the results. As you suggested, I will be doing fixes 1 - 5 three times a week for the rest of my life. I am 65 and have a few other issues from years of sports/exercise and injuries. I look forward to better knees and other injury/weakness locations. Thanks so much and I will be getting the word out concerning your awesome instruction. Thanks again!
Brilliant was suffering with shoulder impingement da last 6 weeks started these exercises yesterday the difference today is unreal shoulder feels great. thank you
Since you asked Trevor.... Love your Enthusiasm. Did not hear you say what to do if these exercises cause too much pain (the condition of this shoulder now) so please address this issue. Please note, the body is 64 As a man, my best is done not to cuss. Just because everyone else does, doesn't mean that I will follow. You're clearly passionate - love that passion!!! Am clicking the "Like" button. Really appreciate that you're reading and taking action on these comments. Keep getting better Trevor!
I can't tell you how much quality influence you're had on my various mobility complexes over the past few years. (I take screenshots of movements I want to integrate into a complex. Your face is right there in every 'bulletproofing' routine I print out. LOL) Every time I start to view one of your videos, I _know_ I'm going to benefit from what you throw at us. So thank you.
I have impingement from bursitis and have not had relief for 5 years. I tried all of these exercises yesterday morning and had decent pain relief for the rest of the day. I am not yet able to complete the full recommended reps/sets, but will try to keep this up. So far, so good. Thank you for sharing these tips!!!
Over the years I've watch quite a few of these videos that claim to help with shoulder pain, and i got to the point that i was going to give up completely on Calisthenics, but after only 3 days of doing only 3 of these exercises ( 1, 3 and 5 ) everything has changed, so simple, so effective, thank you Mr Bachmeyer.
I went to GP and was diagnosed with shoulder impingement, prescribed with anti inflammatory and advised to see physiotherapy.. thanks God I found your video.. save $$..very minimal pain now.. and I will continue to do this exercise.
Hello! I've been doing some of these for years. On the Vees against the wall that you showed - I visited a chiropractor once and showed him what exercises I did and he said on that Vee I should keep my spine as straight as possible, no arching back, if needed bring knees more forward, almost like a wall squat. Apparently it's most important. Regardless, if you do keep your attention on your spine being straight, this exercise becomes so much harder to do therefore you can feel a burn after 15, maybe 20 reps.
Okay… WOW! Thank you. I’ve had this impingement for over eight months and it was getting worse. I just did your video once AND pain nearly 100% gone. I’ve been having Physio, massage, needling, to no avail. Can’t thank you enough 😀👍❤️
Trevor, because of your expertise, and willingness to share it, you are a RUclips treasure ! I had rotator cuff surgery July 2020, 1 giant hole sewn shut, and 4 screws later, and am still in rehab. I thought it was the right thing to do, now i am not so sure, plus i am an old man, need my shoulders for work, and am still not working. I need to incorporate this video info into my routine !
trevor could you please make a video about how to get rid of chostochondritis? ive had it everyday for nearly 3 years and i know there's plenty of people out there like me. thank you.
Trevor, thank you for all your help you have given me, your videos have eliminated a lot chronic pain in my life, that has certainly changed my life for the better and you are responsible for it I love you man !
Too bad this dude wasn't around decades ago but it's never too late to get your mobility back I've had a bad right shoulder for 40+ years and I fixed it a couple years back with a few different drills I've learned from him but for the last year my left shoulder has been barking at me I'm definitely going to be adding this into my routine of Mobility training 3 times a week I'm 62 years old not in shape like Trevor but I make games because of him now I just want to thank you so much dude you're awesome
Trevor, been wanting to thank you for everything you do for some time. You have helped me with shoulders, knees, hips and back. Thank you thank you thank you!
I can't thank u enough! I had so much pain couldn't sleep at night. After doing these exercises 1 time it seemed like the pain disappeared! I slept much better last night! Today, day 2 of exercises, still no pain! It feels like all my muscles that were contracted & guarding finally relaxed! I'm amazed! Thank you so very much!
Thank you for the great info! I have had rotator cuff injuries and other various injuries in both shoulders. Was starting to have impingement in right shoulder . Started to do the simple wall V exercise and the pain went away. Yes, it works!
I've watched quite a few videos on shoulder impingement and literally every video has a completely different set of exercises, it's quite amazing that everybody has a different idea of how to fix this although they're surely all based on the same kind of thing.
I was a gym fanatic in my earlier years and have suffered from really bad shoulder pain for the last year. I have been avoiding the doctor because I though surgery was inevitable. After trying your suggestion for a couple of nights I am already feeling incrementally better. I am going to continue but just wanted to thank you personally 🙏
@@davidharcot220 well, the pain went away and I naturally stopped stretching as diligently. My shoulders are better than initially, but still have overall discomfort
@@ParadiseTeach thanks Ryne i am on the same jorney a bit of improvment in the last 3years but very slowly like driving 5k per hour we will see the end of it one day it is upseting. I have the energy for dumb\barbell but no sutsfactory progress need a lot of time on youtub tinyvest have some expriance about it
@@davidharcot220 I am going to restart daily stretching, hopefully i see some improvements soon.. Let me know if you find anything that works for you, haha :)
Yes I know it's an old video but thank you. I'm 61 years old 6"2 220 and I work out like a beast . I've had a pain in my shoulder blade on a category 10 for 3 weeks. I have watched every video on RUclips nothing worked except your video. I can't thank you enough for your video 💪
Thank you Trevor for providing this free to the world! 🙏🏼 I’ve just started to get shoulder pain and it’s just an annoying pinching pain at the moment but I decided to do something before it gets worse. I only started lifting last year so this type of joint / tendon pain is new to me. I’m so glad you make the videos that you do. This is working for me. A week in, less pain already!
I'm going to try this, my shoulder has been giving me hell for yrs now.. Tried a cortisone shot, tried other stretches pain still comes back..i can hear it in my shoulder
I can't even do #2. Lots of shoulder clunking and my arm won't go that far. #4 can't even get the bad shoulder against the wall while lifting the arm to do it. Argh...
@@lavapix lol I had the same thing. Had a really bad strain in my left shoulder for about a year, then i got tendonitis in my right. just keep working on them and don't overdo them. Last thing you want is to injure them again
God loves you all ❤️😇 Lord Jesus Christ is God in flesh, He is returning, the Word that manifested in flesh for our sake as we shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God. The Word is Yahshua/Lord Jesus Christ and it’s true… He is the way, the life and the truth ❤😇 God bless you all and Lord Jesus Christ loves you all ❤😇
I've watched a ton of your shoulder videos, maybe all of them. I find them to help more than any other resource. But this for me has been the best of them all. I feel like my shoulders are finally going to be functional and pain free.
Believe it or not, this might be the most important post you'll read Everyone of us has broken God's moral law, the Ten Commandments. We have all lied, stolen, hated and lusted. And James 2:10 states that breaking one of the Commandments makes us guilty of breaking them all. Problem is, we can never outweigh our sins through good works because the Creator is perfect in Holiness, meaning His standard is far above ours. And He is also perfect in Justice, meaning not a single sin will go unpunished. And the punishment of sin is being cast into hell, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth with no end. Ever. Fortunately, God is also perfect in love, so 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ left His throne in Heaven and came to this earth as a man. He lived a perfect, sinless life and He so loved us, that He took the punishment of our sin, when He suffered horribly on the cross. Isaiah 53 tells us that his face was marred beyond recognition and that he suffered more than any man. But right before His death, Jesus said "It is finished" meaning the the debt for our sins was paid in full. But on the 3rd day, Jesus conquered death and He was resurrected. So that means now, we can go free from the wrath of God's judgment not by earning it, but rather as a free gift of grace, if you accept Jesus. But, a gift can either accepted or rejected. So if you want to accept the free gift or forgiveness, of grace, and of salvation, this is what you should do: Humbly admit to God that you have sinned against Him, and through gratitude in the sacrifice of His Son, repent (turn away) from your old sinful ways. Then, confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, your Savior. Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried, and was resurrected 3 days later. Roman's 10:9 and 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 says that if you do this you are saved. I'm not telling you to get religious, because Christianity is not a religion, but a relationship with God. And the moment you do this, God will grant you a new heart, which does not take pleasure in sin and He will give you eternal life. Nothing on this earth even close to compares to what awaits believers. What you do with this information will determine where you will be for Eternity; meaning accepting Christ is the single most important decision you'll EVER make. And all of us here, believer or atheist, know that this is very true. Jesus Christ wants YOU to come to Him this very moment; don't even think about sleeping until you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior, because your tomorrow isn't guaranteed. You could die at any moment. Hebrews 9: 27 "It is appointed unto man once to die, but after this, the Judgment." All praise and honor to Jesus Christ, King of kings, Lord of lords.
3 in 1 and human sacrifice and suicidal god ain't the answer. Do some research into the history of the Bible. I invite you and everyone to research into Islam and accept the one unique Creator that is unlike anyof it's creation.
I tried the exercises for less than a week. Very painful but worked thru the pain and now I have got my arm doing the full swim motion with little to no pain. Thank you. This really works! You're the best!
Thank you . I have been working on this longer than I want to talk about learning things on the way . The one with the V movement just changed my world even more
Hands down the best external rotation sequence I have come across. As a swimmer and a coach, just one round relieved my shoulders. I'm the kind of guy that will do this religiously form now on, just as I do my other exercises religiously. this will replace the one dimensional exercises. I'll report back later. As a footnote, the direct advice is so golden. lol. Love it.
Many thanks Trevor. After many years of unsuccessful physio and countless nights of severe pain I've just tried your wall exercise and already the pain is reducing . Your a star! 😊
Dude, the wall V instantly relieved something in my shoulder right away after months of pain. I am definitely gonna include these in my routines. Thank you.
My shoulder has been killing me in wave like pain and aches. I work out every day strength training cardio etc. Wondered if this was old age or something I could work on to alleviate. Lessened my work out weights, but pain was not going away. Went to Sports Dr. and said I had impingement and PT could help. I agree PT could possibly help but I can do what needs to get done if I knew what to do. I have watched different YT videos and came across yours. A MIRACLE! I tried doing these and mastering them and upon first attempt I feel relief from my ongoing shoulder pain! The four step one especially! I will be incorporating all of these into my workouts and hope this relief continues. I will also make sure I work on good shoulder too. Thank you for your positive energy and encouragement to do these great stretches. Your informative and well explained stretches are GREAT! Keep on doing what you do! Inspiring!
I had a shoulder/elbow pain recently developed and bothering me .I watched a lot of videos of exercises that could help. I came across this one too. I did the secind test described in the video and couldn't lift my arms up all the way up and was hurting.After I did the 5 exercises,i did the test again. Omg..i could lift my arms in the both tests in proper form. I am so thankful for this content. I plan to do it in my workout everyday. TY..
Arch your back when you bench to reduce range of motion, or stay straight then if the back will hurt, but use smaller range of motion. Some might say that this is cheating the bench, but will work. In time the shoulder will get better and you should be able to bench normally from time to time -doing normal bench often will make the pain come back, though, so say goodbye to strict bench as the norm, like you people did in the past. Recovery exercises shown by chiropractors all kind of positions and elasticity and whatever will work to a small degree. This is why there is such a great range of them (exercises) all designed for so called "shoulder impingement fix", because there is no factual remedy for that problem.
I see some really good advice on this video & in the comments. I've suffered from a pinched nerve in my left shoulder for years now. It comes & goes. But when I exercise I can keep the problem in check. I finally figured out what caused it. it's my desk job. Sitting in front of a computer all day. Some of the exercises that have worked for me is wide grip lat pulldowns, chinups, dumbbell raises, lateral dumbbell raises, & shrugs. I'm going to try the exercises shown here
Good lord, I just did this to see if it’d help my rear shoulder pain and it seems to have relieved it a lot after one time. I will be continuing this until it’s gone. Thanks man.
I just found you yesterday. I am trying them out because my right shoulder has been giving me problems for almost a year now and really disrupting my workouts. Fingers crossed these will help. Thank you so much for the video. Very clear explanation and demonstration. Keep up the good work
Thank you so much,!! I'm feeling relief after going through just one round of each exercise! I ride my bike everywhere and it's clear , now, how this impingement happened. I'm sooooo looking forward to having my shoulder function properly again.
I've had uncontrollable seizure clusters for 22+ years and my muscles get VERY tweaked and tight afterwards and I must release them and the best way to do that is use them again with some exercise. Usually the longest lasting pain is Anterior Pelvic Tilt which hurts like a mofo. Recently, the after-pain has switched to Impingement in my right shoulder. The pain lasts for a longtime until I have another seizure, then usually migrates to another muscle region. The exercise movements you presented have helped immensely and instantly also. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS IN BEING A HEALER!!!!!
I’m glad I found this. Fix #2 is the perfect way to strengthen the increased shoulder mobility I gained from repeatedly drawing and re-sheathing a nerf sword. Sounds silly, feels incredible
I’ve been doing this for about a year and it’s changed everything for me . I am a delivery driver (I drive a semi 48 footer) and have to move 20-30 thousand pounds of product by hand into restaurants every day . If it weren’t for these exercises on top of my workouts I would be a cripple. Thank you so much.
Omg I am so excited to try this! Please please please let it work! I got injured at work almost a month ago and I haven’t been able to work out since due to being scared of making it worse or permanent! I move furniture for work lol. Thank you so much for posting this! ❤
Liked this video. New exercises to try. But ... the big benefit is that there is something about Trevor that inspires me, and it feels like I will be consistent, which is what it really takes.
New subscriber here. I came across this clip after doing a shoulder impingement search. Took some time off the gym and now back into it. Guess I got a little overzealous on chest day and I really feel sore/right shoulder pain upon dumbbell flat presses. Aside from lightning up the weight , I’m absolutely going to incorporate these exercises. I thank you friend for your info and clips.
For almost 3 month i am suffering from an endless, itching pain in my left shoulder after i did a benchpress machine with heavy weights in the gym. I quickly found out that this has to be an impingement. I looked up many videos and many excercises that should have helped by now. None of these actually did. The first excercise in the this video allready gave me an instant release. I will start and continue all of the excercises and see where this goes. But i am certain, i finaly found a solution. So thank you so much for sharing this. I'll get back here in a couple weeks to let you know if finaly got rid of that damn impingement.
One week in and today was the first time in 3 month i almost had no issues while working out. There was some little itching here and there but i didn‘t leave the gym with remaining pain like i did in the past. This is definitly working.
I’m working on fixing my scapula movement by focusing on lower/ mid-trap and anterior serrated activation. I tried these exercises, but I don’t think I’m ready for them yet. I do not have good control of my scapula movement and am finding pain when attempting some of these. Excited to come back and try again next week! Will update my comment periodically to track progress. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
What fixed my bad shoulder impingement was physio bands, followed by dead hanging on a pull up bar, and finally Macebell 360s and steel clubs. No more pain, and bullet proof shoulders stronger than ever.
I've had impingement in both shoulders for years now, and have tried many different exercises without much relief, the only thing that worked for me is hanging from a pull-up bar, (best with neutral grip for static hanging or classic grip for swinging) for a few minutes which can be broken into shorter periods but should add up to at least 2-3 minutes for beginners, relieves about 60 percent of the pain on the first day, and gets better with time but you need to be consistent with it. There's a shoulder surgeon who wrote a book on this treatment after conducting trials on his patients and most resolved it without surgery just by hanging.
I had impingement on one shoulder due to bad swim technique. Hanging also worked for me. The great thing about hanging is that it is so easy.
Made my shoulders much worse
Yeah I agree mate, I’ve got a partial tear in supra spinatus and labrum, also bursitis. Hanging has made more difference than every other movement together.
Also doing a sub scap release under armpit seems really good too.
I had impingements on both sides, but at different times. Can't imagine how much it would suck to have them both at he same time.
@@alexanderturl how you feeling now ?
I found you 4 days ago. I left a comment then removed it. I’ve done your exercises for the past 3 days...and I’m sitting here doing my own thing and just realized ...I have no pain right now!!

I am in the exact same position mate. I’ve been doing this for a week now and I can say that my shoulder feels so much stronger and there is no pain!
I'm an emotional person and I about cried reading that. 😂
I hope you are doing more if not all the things that you used to take for granted painlessly or close to it and actually getting some sleep.
Worked for me. I now do 1 set of all 5 exercises before I start my chest/shoulder workout and not had any problems since! Legend!
Simply hanging from a bar fixed my impingement issues. Suffered for six months before discovering this simple fix. Simply hang for 30 seconds three times before and after your workout. If you can’t support your body weight use a low bar so you can use your legs to support some of the weight.
Seems to work for some people but not me :(
I Can’t even workout with this impingement. Maybe yours was very mild?
hanging creates horrible burning pain in the front of my arm and top of my shoulder. It's awful.
Works for me too!
@@SIIKAP1mine was horrible. Had to start hanging and started doing shoulder workouts with literally 15lb dumbbells and slowly worked my way back up for months
Omg after trying 100s of different shoulder mobility excerises this is the only routine that has given me immediate relief, thank you so much
What resistance bands did you use for each exercise?
I appreciate you saying that it’s long and arduous.
I've watched this video 3 times and will start incorporating the moves - I have calcification in both shoulders, bursitis, tears and degeneration going on.... 66 year old gal here who does not want cortisone shots or surgery, and I don't like to hear the words 'Frozen shoulder'!! I've started going to a gym since the end of January, and just actually using my muscles has made a big difference. BUT, I can't do your move #4 at all, I can't get my arms up and back onto the wall - I have a bit of scoliosis that I assume is causing the issue. I look forward to seeing how the rest of the moves work for me though. I plan on checking out your other videos as well, thanks for the help and advice!
Props to this guy for helping me keep making
Gains
You literally saved my life. God bless you
I broke my leg with an axe and had to walk in a cast for several months. Long story short it messed up the way I walk a bit and that compounds my back pain for years and the past couple years or more I've been feeling real debilitated and like I'm fighting an enemy that knows my every move so I can never win merely inflame my back. My good arm has been dwindling away as I've had such a lack of range of movement and so much inflammation. These techniques are the only things I've been able to get RELIEF. SAVING ME LOTS OF STRESS AND PAIN. THANK YOU!
I’ve been having impingement issues with my right shoulder for the past few months. I didn’t have any serious pain but it was uncomfortable and didn’t seem like it was going away. I performed the 2nd exercise and heard a popping sound and no more pain. Simply amazing
Same here.
Pop.
Free. Enjoy life
Holy smokes. Day 2 of this and my shoulders feel like they’re 10 years younger. THANK YOU!
I dislocate my shoulder about 18 times ... Should I go for surgery or I can heal with exercises???
I just wanted to say I tried these movements five or six different times while recovering from and injury. And boy oh boy my shoulders felt brand new when I started to train again. AMAZING videos, thank you and God bless
That first move IS THE TICKET! Thanks, bro and may God bless you... no other exercise rolls out the shoulder like that one.....I have been working on this for a long time and tried many things....amazing!
I did the wall angels you suggested on "Shoulder Bursitis? Fix your shoulder mechanics ASAP" and it worked. Immediately. I did three sets. Crazy. Thanks. These and your rotator cuff exercises are now a permanent part of my workout. I hated having bursitis. Cheers!
This is incredibly helpful. I've been doing a lot of pushups and heavy bench press and overhead press for years, and always left shoulder stability as an afterthought. The net effect of that is big front delts and rounding internally rotated shoulders. Well the bill has come due after 2 decades of neglect and I'm now getting impingement or a possible partial tear (ruled out complete tear, but MRI is slated). I'm now starting my rear delt/stability work thanks to this video and others contributing to collective PT wisdom. Definitely what RUclips was meant for.
I've had shoulder pain for 15 years from jackhammering, heavy lifting, shoveling, etc..
I Thought it was a tendon tear (haven't had professional help for it] but after trying these exercises it's definitely targeting that long term painful area. Thank you!
Trevor you are a life saver. Shoulder pain in the last few weeks has been keeping me up at night and I really don't recall injuring my shoulder. Thank you for putting this kind of content out there for all of us to use. Your generosity is saving me personally money as i have to meet my deductible before my insurance will help with anything and going to see a physical therapist is at least a 100 bucks a pop. $5000 deductible. So I am grateful. Thank you!
Trevor, thank you! For 12 years I have battled my shoulder impingement, but no more. Massive improvement in mobility and pain level. G-d bless you.
I really feel for you
Hi Trevor, I have battling shoulder impingement pain for more than a year. I was just about ready to see a physical therapist but came upon your video about a week ago. I carefully watched your video 2 - 3 times and wrote down your exact instruction. I completed fixes 1 - 5 every other day as you suggested. After day 2 I was feeling much better and after day 3 I was amazed at the results. As you suggested, I will be doing fixes 1 - 5 three times a week for the rest of my life. I am 65 and have a few other issues from years of sports/exercise and injuries. I look forward to better knees and other injury/weakness locations. Thanks so much and I will be getting the word out concerning your awesome instruction. Thanks again!
I just watched this video. I've been dealing with shoulder pain for several years now. It comes and goes. I hope these exercises help me. Thank you
Brilliant was suffering with shoulder impingement da last 6 weeks started these exercises yesterday the difference today is unreal shoulder feels great. thank you
Since you asked Trevor....
Love your Enthusiasm.
Did not hear you say what to do if these exercises cause too much pain (the condition of this shoulder now) so please address this issue.
Please note, the body is 64
As a man, my best is done not to cuss. Just because everyone else does, doesn't mean that I will follow.
You're clearly passionate - love that passion!!!
Am clicking the "Like" button.
Really appreciate that you're reading and taking action on these comments.
Keep getting better Trevor!
I can't tell you how much quality influence you're had on my various mobility complexes over the past few years. (I take screenshots of movements I want to integrate into a complex. Your face is right there in every 'bulletproofing' routine I print out. LOL) Every time I start to view one of your videos, I _know_ I'm going to benefit from what you throw at us. So thank you.
Hell yeah Trevor rules!
I have impingement from bursitis and have not had relief for 5 years. I tried all of these exercises yesterday morning and had decent pain relief for the rest of the day. I am not yet able to complete the full recommended reps/sets, but will try to keep this up. So far, so good. Thank you for sharing these tips!!!
Over the years I've watch quite a few of these videos that claim to help with shoulder pain, and i got to the point that i was going to give up completely on Calisthenics, but after only 3 days of doing only 3 of these exercises ( 1, 3 and 5 ) everything has changed, so simple, so effective, thank you Mr Bachmeyer.
I went to GP and was diagnosed with shoulder impingement, prescribed with anti inflammatory and advised to see physiotherapy.. thanks God I found your video.. save $$..very minimal pain now.. and I will continue to do this exercise.
Hello! I've been doing some of these for years. On the Vees against the wall that you showed - I visited a chiropractor once and showed him what exercises I did and he said on that Vee I should keep my spine as straight as possible, no arching back, if needed bring knees more forward, almost like a wall squat. Apparently it's most important. Regardless, if you do keep your attention on your spine being straight, this exercise becomes so much harder to do therefore you can feel a burn after 15, maybe 20 reps.
the way i was taught to do the vee or wall slides was to keep my back straight and against the wall, no arcing
Okay… WOW! Thank you. I’ve had this impingement for over eight months and it was getting worse. I just did your video once AND pain nearly 100% gone. I’ve been having Physio, massage, needling, to no avail. Can’t thank you enough 😀👍❤️
Excellent routine. I'm definitely sticking with this. Shoulders and neck feel so open after this ❤
WORKED FOR ME...THANK YOU.
Trevor, because of your expertise, and willingness to share it, you are a RUclips treasure ! I had rotator cuff surgery July 2020, 1 giant hole sewn shut, and 4 screws later, and am still in rehab. I thought it was the right thing to do, now i am not so sure, plus i am an old man, need my shoulders for work, and am still not working. I need to incorporate this video info into my routine !
I've had this problem ever since my wrestling days in high school. And I have dislocated my shoulders multiple times. Thank you for making this video.
trevor could you please make a video about how to get rid of chostochondritis? ive had it everyday for nearly 3 years and i know there's plenty of people out there like me. thank you.
Please and thank you!
Yo Trevor I know comments aren’t available on most your videos, but I just want to say you are the GOAT!
Trevor, thank you for all your help you have given me, your videos have eliminated a lot chronic pain in my life, that has certainly changed my life for the better and you are responsible for it I love you man !
Same. Trev is for real
Too bad this dude wasn't around decades ago but it's never too late to get your mobility back
I've had a bad right shoulder for 40+ years and I fixed it a couple years back with a few different drills I've learned from him but for the last year my left shoulder has been barking at me
I'm definitely going to be adding this into my routine of Mobility training 3 times a week I'm 62 years old not in shape like Trevor but I make games because of him now I just want to thank you so much dude you're awesome
Trevor, been wanting to thank you for everything you do for some time. You have helped me with shoulders, knees, hips and back. Thank you thank you thank you!
This video plus the one does a few years back addressing the teres minor and lat separation are AWESOME
I can't thank u enough! I had so much pain couldn't sleep at night. After doing these exercises 1 time it seemed like the pain disappeared! I slept much better last night! Today, day 2 of exercises, still no pain! It feels like all my muscles that were contracted & guarding finally relaxed! I'm amazed! Thank you so very much!
Ive tried so many different things and my impingement in both shoulders simply wont go away. Im hopeful that these exercises will finally help
Top job chap. It's really helping after only 1 week. Genius
Thank you for the great info! I have had rotator cuff injuries and other various injuries in both shoulders. Was starting to have impingement in right shoulder . Started to do the simple wall V exercise and the pain went away. Yes, it works!
How long did it take before you notice it working
I've watched quite a few videos on shoulder impingement and literally every video has a completely different set of exercises, it's quite amazing that everybody has a different idea of how to fix this although they're surely all based on the same kind of thing.
I was a gym fanatic in my earlier years and have suffered from really bad shoulder pain for the last year. I have been avoiding the doctor because I though surgery was inevitable. After trying your suggestion for a couple of nights I am already feeling incrementally better. I am going to continue but just wanted to thank you personally 🙏
So how you going after 4 month getting better please yeplay
@@davidharcot220 well, the pain went away and I naturally stopped stretching as diligently. My shoulders are better than initially, but still have overall discomfort
@@ParadiseTeach thanks Ryne i am on the same jorney a bit of improvment in the last 3years but very slowly like driving 5k per hour we will see the end of it one day it is upseting. I have the energy for dumb\barbell but no sutsfactory progress need a lot of time on youtub tinyvest have some expriance about it
@@davidharcot220 I am going to restart daily stretching, hopefully i see some improvements soon.. Let me know if you find anything that works for you, haha :)
@@nalasimbavr8912 yes streching is first thing and strengthing is anather one the more you deal with it the more know you about it
Yes I know it's an old video but thank you. I'm 61 years old 6"2 220 and I work out like a beast . I've had a pain in my shoulder blade on a category 10 for 3 weeks. I have watched every video on RUclips nothing worked except your video. I can't thank you enough for your video 💪
Thank you Trevor for providing this free to the world! 🙏🏼
I’ve just started to get shoulder pain and it’s just an annoying pinching pain at the moment but I decided to do something before it gets worse. I only started lifting last year so this type of joint / tendon pain is new to me.
I’m so glad you make the videos that you do. This is working for me. A week in, less pain already!
Had issues for over a year. Seriously painful. What this man says is true.
I'm going to try this, my shoulder has been giving me hell for yrs now.. Tried a cortisone shot, tried other stretches pain still comes back..i can hear it in my shoulder
Same trouble here.., nothing seems to work either. Did this help you of I may ask ?
@@Jiimgym a little bit...it relieves some pain...
@@scollybig2947 I notice good results from swimming and hanging btw. And I shower warm then I go cold for 5 minuts. Try it 💪
Amazing! Finally my constant shoulder pain is gone. Thanks!
I can't even do #2. Lots of shoulder clunking and my arm won't go that far. #4 can't even get the bad shoulder against the wall while lifting the arm to do it. Argh...
I had to take a deep breath and breathe through the motions. It really hurts. I hope you find relief.
Like the other comment mentioned, BREATH through it-exhale hard and long-blow all of the air out of your body to get more range
@@efrengramajo That didn't work but it's been months now and it's gotten better. Now the other one is toast :-)
@@lavapix lol I had the same thing. Had a really bad strain in my left shoulder for about a year, then i got tendonitis in my right. just keep working on them and don't overdo them. Last thing you want is to injure them again
@@kevint9471 Believe it or not surfing has helped as long as I cut my sessions short or go in if I feel the wrong type of pain
What a treasure you are Trevor…Thank you.
God loves you all ❤️😇 Lord Jesus Christ is God in flesh, He is returning, the Word that manifested in flesh for our sake as we shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God. The Word is Yahshua/Lord Jesus Christ and it’s true… He is the way, the life and the truth ❤😇 God bless you all and Lord Jesus Christ loves you all ❤😇
Thank you so much❤
JESUS is LORD!
Also we should look after our physical bodies while on this earth. Strength training is great
I've watched a ton of your shoulder videos, maybe all of them. I find them to help more than any other resource. But this for me has been the best of them all. I feel like my shoulders are finally going to be functional and pain free.
Believe it or not, this might be the most important post you'll read
Everyone of us has broken God's moral law, the Ten Commandments. We have all lied, stolen, hated and lusted. And James 2:10 states that breaking one of the Commandments makes us guilty of breaking them all. Problem is, we can never outweigh our sins through good works because the Creator is perfect in Holiness, meaning His standard is far above ours. And He is also perfect in Justice, meaning not a single sin will go unpunished. And the punishment of sin is being cast into hell, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth with no end. Ever.
Fortunately, God is also perfect in love, so 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ left His throne in Heaven and came to this earth as a man. He lived a perfect, sinless life and He so loved us, that He took the punishment of our sin, when He suffered horribly on the cross. Isaiah 53 tells us that his face was marred beyond recognition and that he suffered more than any man. But right before His death, Jesus said "It is finished" meaning the the debt for our sins was paid in full. But on the 3rd day, Jesus conquered death and He was resurrected. So that means now, we can go free from the wrath of God's judgment not by earning it, but rather as a free gift of grace, if you accept Jesus. But, a gift can either accepted or rejected.
So if you want to accept the free gift or forgiveness, of grace, and of salvation, this is what you should do:
Humbly admit to God that you have sinned against Him, and through gratitude in the sacrifice of His Son, repent (turn away) from your old sinful ways. Then, confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, your Savior. Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried, and was resurrected 3 days later. Roman's 10:9 and 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 says that if you do this you are saved. I'm not telling you to get religious, because Christianity is not a religion, but a relationship with God.
And the moment you do this, God will grant you a new heart, which does not take pleasure in sin and He will give you eternal life. Nothing on this earth even close to compares to what awaits believers.
What you do with this information will determine where you will be for Eternity; meaning accepting Christ is the single most important decision you'll EVER make. And all of us here, believer or atheist, know that this is very true.
Jesus Christ wants YOU to come to Him this very moment; don't even think about sleeping until you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior, because your tomorrow isn't guaranteed. You could die at any moment. Hebrews 9: 27 "It is appointed unto man once to die, but after this, the Judgment."
All praise and honor to Jesus Christ, King of kings, Lord of lords.
3 in 1 and human sacrifice and suicidal god ain't the answer. Do some research into the history of the Bible.
I invite you and everyone to research into Islam and accept the one unique Creator that is unlike anyof it's creation.
I'm super impressed by the delivery. Very detailed. I'm gonna give it a try this week :)
thanks for the lesson. changing my life with your help
Are you still doing the exercises from the video? Do you have any pain?
I tried the exercises for less than a week. Very painful but worked thru the pain and now I have got my arm doing the full swim motion with little to no pain. Thank you. This really works! You're the best!
Thank you . I have been working on this longer than I want to talk about learning things on the way . The one with the V movement just changed my world even more
Hands down the best external rotation sequence I have come across. As a swimmer and a coach, just one round relieved my shoulders. I'm the kind of guy that will do this religiously form now on, just as I do my other exercises religiously. this will replace the one dimensional exercises. I'll report back later. As a footnote, the direct advice is so golden. lol. Love it.
Many thanks Trevor. After many years of unsuccessful physio and countless nights of severe pain I've just tried your wall exercise and already the pain is reducing . Your a star! 😊
Dude, the wall V instantly relieved something in my shoulder right away after months of pain. I am definitely gonna include these in my routines. Thank you.
My shoulder has been killing me in wave like pain and aches. I work out every day strength training cardio etc. Wondered if this was old age or something I could work on to alleviate. Lessened my work out weights, but pain was not going away. Went to Sports Dr. and said I had impingement and PT could help. I agree PT could possibly help but I can do what needs to get done if I knew what to do. I have watched different YT videos and came across yours. A MIRACLE! I tried doing these and mastering them and upon first attempt I feel relief from my ongoing shoulder pain! The four step one especially! I will be incorporating all of these into my workouts and hope this relief continues. I will also make sure I work on good shoulder too. Thank you for your positive energy and encouragement to do these great stretches. Your informative and well explained stretches are GREAT! Keep on doing what you do! Inspiring!
I had a shoulder/elbow pain recently developed and bothering me .I watched a lot of videos of exercises that could help. I came across this one too. I did the secind test described in the video and couldn't lift my arms up all the way up and was hurting.After I did the 5 exercises,i did the test again. Omg..i could lift my arms in the both tests in proper form. I am so thankful for this content. I plan to do it in my workout everyday. TY..
Arch your back when you bench to reduce range of motion, or stay straight then if the back will hurt, but use smaller range of motion. Some might say that this is cheating the bench, but will work. In time the shoulder will get better and you should be able to bench normally from time to time -doing normal bench often will make the pain come back, though, so say goodbye to strict bench as the norm, like you people did in the past. Recovery exercises shown by chiropractors all kind of positions and elasticity and whatever will work to a small degree. This is why there is such a great range of them (exercises) all designed for so called "shoulder impingement fix", because there is no factual remedy for that problem.
Yes, the elbows hurt too right? I guess its connected to the shoulder impingement.
I see some really good advice on this video & in the comments. I've suffered from a pinched nerve in my left shoulder for years now. It comes & goes. But when I exercise I can keep the problem in check. I finally figured out what caused it. it's my desk job. Sitting in front of a computer all day. Some of the exercises that have worked for me is wide grip lat pulldowns, chinups, dumbbell raises, lateral dumbbell raises, & shrugs. I'm going to try the exercises shown here
Can’t thank you enough for posting this clip. My shoulder feels much better after a few days of doing it.
Nice video. Very Helpful for sure. Wishing I had done this stuff before my shoulders started hurting.
Gotta love the guy for all the content he shares
Being doing that for 3 days now...these exercises are a game changer guys...thx very much Trav 🙌
your humbleness made me write comment. good video very informative. thank you
Good lord, I just did this to see if it’d help my rear shoulder pain and it seems to have relieved it a lot after one time. I will be continuing this until it’s gone. Thanks man.
I just found you yesterday. I am trying them out because my right shoulder has been giving me problems for almost a year now and really disrupting my workouts. Fingers crossed these will help. Thank you so much for the video. Very clear explanation and demonstration. Keep up the good work
I’m speechless. So much wisdom my head is spinning. Well done, I don’t know what else to say…
You are an angel man! Had my left shoulder on FIRE doing all of these and I feel amazing after finishing them! God bless you.
Thanks, for days I've been putting ice on my shoulder. Pain can really become unbearable.
EXCELLENT MATERIAL. you just got yourself a new loyal subscriber
Now i need help with my knee and hip. I'm confident you have solutions.
Definitely going to do these , my left shoulder has been killing me the last couple of months, thanks
Thank you so much,!! I'm feeling relief after going through just one round of each exercise! I ride my bike everywhere and it's clear , now, how this impingement happened. I'm sooooo looking forward to having my shoulder function properly again.
I've had uncontrollable seizure clusters for 22+ years and my muscles get VERY tweaked and tight afterwards and I must release them and the best way to do that is use them again with some exercise. Usually the longest lasting pain is Anterior Pelvic Tilt which hurts like a mofo. Recently, the after-pain has switched to Impingement in my right shoulder. The pain lasts for a longtime until I have another seizure, then usually migrates to another muscle region. The exercise movements you presented have helped immensely and instantly also. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS IN BEING A HEALER!!!!!
You're a genius!!! Just did it and relived so much pain, I've been struggling to take my shirts off and sleeping hasn't been fun! Thanks
I’m glad I found this. Fix #2 is the perfect way to strengthen the increased shoulder mobility I gained from repeatedly drawing and re-sheathing a nerf sword. Sounds silly, feels incredible
I’ve been doing this for about a year and it’s changed everything for me . I am a delivery driver (I drive a semi 48 footer) and have to move 20-30 thousand pounds of product by hand into restaurants every day . If it weren’t for these exercises on top of my workouts I would be a cripple. Thank you so much.
Are you still doing the exercises from the video? Do you have any pain?
Thanks for sharing this.
The V with the back against the wall fixed in one day something that bothered me for 3 months.
Omg I am so excited to try this! Please please please let it work! I got injured at work almost a month ago and I haven’t been able to work out since due to being scared of making it worse or permanent! I move furniture for work lol. Thank you so much for posting this! ❤
Liked this video. New exercises to try. But ... the big benefit is that there is something about Trevor that inspires me, and it feels like I will be consistent, which is what it really takes.
New subscriber here. I came across this clip after doing a shoulder impingement search. Took some time off the gym and now back into it. Guess I got a little overzealous on chest day and I really feel sore/right shoulder pain upon dumbbell flat presses. Aside from lightning up the weight , I’m absolutely going to incorporate these exercises. I thank you friend for your info and clips.
Can't help but notice all the praise for this content in the comments. I'm gonna try these. I've screwed my RCs up like 3 times in total. Both sides
thanks for the informative video, posterior pain, rhomboid all firing from a 2 level cervical disc - but these exorcises keep me going
You're a legend Trevor! Been following you for YEARS. Thankyou so much for all your advice.
For almost 3 month i am suffering from an endless, itching pain in my left shoulder after i did a benchpress machine with heavy weights in the gym. I quickly found out that this has to be an impingement. I looked up many videos and many excercises that should have helped by now. None of these actually did. The first excercise in the this video allready gave me an instant release. I will start and continue all of the excercises and see where this goes. But i am certain, i finaly found a solution. So thank you so much for sharing this. I'll get back here in a couple weeks to let you know if finaly got rid of that damn impingement.
One week in and today was the first time in 3 month i almost had no issues while working out. There was some little itching here and there but i didn‘t leave the gym with remaining pain like i did in the past. This is definitly working.
I’m working on fixing my scapula movement by focusing on lower/ mid-trap and anterior serrated activation. I tried these exercises, but I don’t think I’m ready for them yet. I do not have good control of my scapula movement and am finding pain when attempting some of these.
Excited to come back and try again next week! Will update my comment periodically to track progress. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
