    I had problem similar to that on last year baseball season, when doing pushups my right arms I would feel a pop no discomfort just a pop. But as soon as season ended that I gave my arms some rest it stopped doing it. Try giving your arm a good warm up before you do it, and if you feel any kind a pain when doing them stop doing it before you mess up your arm even worse and go see a doc and get the arm x rayed to see what up with it…

    I would take a break if i was you. I also had a pop in my shoulder a few months ago, no real pain just a wierd feeling. I just wrote it off and continued training, after a while it started hurting and i found out that i had tendonitis. Take a week off, maybe go to your doc to get an MRI and make sure everything's okay. Better to waste a week for nothing that to continue training and then have to take several months off!

    If it doesn't hurt and it goes away after a few reps, then I wouldn't worry about it, mine do it all the time to start off with till they get warmed up.

    If it does when you do push ups it will also do it on bench press, It’s the same movement…

    Yet another reason I prefer dumbells, dynamic positioning.

    They do for me, regular bench presses are too restrictive in their movement for my liking. I do them now and again, but I much prefer dumbells, by far.
