I think I may have injured my rotator cuff muscles
It's not a pain. It's a weak feeling I'm getting on my right shoulder just below the lateral delt.
when i do an external rotation with my shoulder or raise my arm forward, that's when the weak feeling kicks in.
AGAIN, THERE'S NO PAIN, so i think it's just an overuse type injury. either that or I believe I've been over stretching it.
any ideas???Know the Rules:

31. Check the back seat; 32. Enjoy the little things

what i think caused it is this..
i've had to swap to db's for my squats because my old gym didn't have a squat rack. when i'd go down for my squat, i'd move the db's a couple of inches to clear my hips. i really think that's what started it all.Know the Rules:

i looked thru my kinesiology book during lunch and i believe it's the infraspinatus and teres minor muscles of my rotator cuff. they are the ones that assist with external rotation and abduction.

Ice after your workout and keep icing for a day or two. After that switch between icing and heating.
Don't do anything that hurts in your workouts.

I would get that checked out by a doctor. Something like that sounds like a pinched efferent nerve or something of the sort.
Does the position of your scapula, spine, or any other bodily orientation effect the symptoms?The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
