Hi Everyone,
I've done a search of this forum and cannot find the answer I was looking for.
I have been avoiding bench pressing for a while becasue of pain in my A/C joint. Regardless of what grip I use, it still hurts. I do not have any problems with my rotator cuff, tendonitis, or bursitis. I can do dips and military presses (to the front, not the back of the head) without any problems. Dumbell presses are ok as well as long as I lift and lower the weight along a specific plane. Has anyone heard of this problem and its causes? I suspect it could be a muscle imbalance but I do not know.
Any insight is greatly appreciated. I would like to get back into regular barbell bench pressing.
Thank you.....
