Although so many different things may lead to this, there are three immediate sources that jump out at me. One thing that can cause a shoulder injury over time is doing activities where you are internally rotating and flexing your shoulder. An example of this is doing upright rows. This can lead to shoulder impingement over time and is simply a poor exercise overall that should be avoided. Any activity where you are doing this action should be avoided. A second thing that can lead to issues like rotator cuff pain in the shoulder is doing behind the neck exercises. This can include behind the neck presses and pulldowns. Also, going too far down on dips and too far back on the chest fly can overly stress your shoulder. Finally, not stretching your chest enough and not strengthening your upper back can lead to issues. This can lead to shoulder rounding, which can increase your chances of impingement and shoulder pain in general. So you should be stretching out your chest and doing things to strengthen your upper back, such as face pulls and the reverse chest fly. All of this should help you out! ***************************************************** Follow me on Pinterest: www.pinterest.com/fitnessoriented/ Follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/FitnessOriented Follow me on Google+: plus.google.com/+FitnessOriented
