There are many different factors that can contribute to shoulder pain. In this article we are going to discuss how to fix shoulder pain caused by tight anterior (front) muscles and weak posterior delts (back of your shoulder).
Many people have tight chest muscles because most of the tasks we do are infront of us, whether you are doing simple every day tasks like driving and texting. Or spending more time in the gym training your chest. This contributes to your pectoral (chest) muscles becoming overly tight which over time can cause your shoulders to round inwards. This places your shoulders in a bad position and can cause more problems when you workout, increase your chance of injury and cause shoulder pain.
One of the ways to fix this problem is stretch and mobilize your chest and shoulders and strengthen your rear delts to bring back balance in these structures.
Watch the video below for tools that will help you fix your shoulder pain if it is being caused by tight anterior muscles.
