  • The Bench Press Fly's
    www.dfwsportsmed.com AC Joint Injuries: Weight-Lifting Exercises to Avoid Adapted from Ollie Odebunmi, Demand Media The acromioclavicular joint, also known as the AC joint, is at the top most point of your shoulder where the collar bone attaches to the shoulder. AC joint injuries are caused by repetitive trauma, falls on the shoulder joint or certain weightlifting exercises. But you don't have to abandon your weightlifting program. Simply modify your technique and avoid the exercises that cause discomfort. The Bench Press Avoid full range of motion barbell or dumbbell bench presses. Excessive stress on the AC joint occurs when your elbows drop below your body on the downward motion. Using heavy weights compounds the problem. The bench press is often seen as a test of strength by weightlifters, and many do the exercise too frequently with near- maximal weights. Limit the stress on your AC joint by not bench pressing every week. Use a towel roll or do the bench press on the floor to prevent the elbows from dropping past the body. Fly’s Flat bench or incline bench dumbbell fly’s with dumbbells lowered in a wide arc out to the sides overextends the shoulder joints. The stress and risk of injury to the AC joint increases if your elbows drop below your body to get a full stretch of the pectorals. Machine fly’s gripping a bar or handles or with forearms against a pad also overextend your shoulder joints on the negative phase of the movement as your elbows travel beyond your shoulder joints.

  • Exercise of the Month: Reverse Dumbbell
    Exercise of the Month Reverse Dumbbell Fly Purpose: To increase overall size and strength to the upper posterior body. Mainly targets the upper back muscles which also act as very powerful spinal stabilizers for posture. Target Muscles: Rhomboids, Rear Deltoids, Middle trapezius Equipment Needed: Dumbbells, or equally weighted soup cans/water bottles Start/Movement: Front view: Side view: • Grab a pair of dumbbells that is appropriate to perform the exercise. Stand shoulder width apart with a slight bend in your knees. • Bend forward at your hips until your torso is at a 45-degree angle, chest up and core fully engaged. Try to remain in this position throughout the entire set. • Bring the dumbbells straight down parallel to the floor, your palms facing each other, with your arms slightly bent. • Raise both arms out to the sides keeping the slight bend in your arms as you squeeze your shoulder blades together. Don’t go past shoulder height when you lift the dumbbells. • Perform the exercise for 3 sets of 8-12 reps. Tips: • When you’re lifting the dumbbells, you should be focused on squeezing your shoulder blades together. • Keep your core fully engaged so that you don't apply too much pressure on your lower back or neck. • Keep your chest open to the ground which will ensure you use your upper back and deltoids to lift the dumbbells.

  • Strength Training for the Shoulder
    175 Cambridge Street Boston, MA 02114 617-643-9999 www.mghsportsmedicine.org Strength Training for the Shoulder This handout is a guide to help you safely build strength and establish an effective weight- training program for the shoulder. Starting Your Weight Training Program • Start with three sets of 15-20 repetitions • Training with high repetition sets ensures that the weights that you are using are not too heavy. • To avoid injury, performing any weight training exercise to the point of muscle failure is not recommended. • “Muscle failure” occurs when, in performing a weight training exercise, the muscle is no longer able to provide the energy necessary to contract and move the joint(s) involved in the particular exercise. • Joint, muscle and tendon injuries are more likely to occur when muscle failure occurs. • Build up resistance and repetitions gradually • Perform exercises slowly, avoiding quick direction change • Exercise frequency should be 2 to 3 times per week for strength building • Be consistent and regular with the exercise schedule Prevention of Injuries in Weight Training • As a warm-up using light weights, you can do the rotator cuff and scapular strengthening program (see next page) • Follow a pre-exercise stretching routine (see next page) • Do warm-up sets for each weight exercise • Avoid overload and maximum lifts • Do not ‘work-through’ pain in the shoulder joint • Stretch as cool-down at end of exercise • Avoid excessive frequency and get adequate rest and recovery between sessions. • Caution: Do not do exercises with the barbell or dumbbell behind the head and neck. For shoulder safety when working with weights, you must always be able to see your hands if you are looking straight ahead.
