strange shoulder pain when doing push ups

[Nicolas Lukas]

Hello everyone,

I´m 18 years old and I´m working out for 7 years now. I´m 6ft 1 tall and 190 lbs in weight.

I have a problem with push ups, especially archer and pseudo planche push ups. It´s strange, if I keep my elbows close to my body, there is clicking and kind of sharp pain. But when I internally rotate my hands (even more than a pronated grip), then I can go so low, that my chest is touching the floor and I haven´t got any pain.

I don´t know, what that is. Maybe anybody can help me?

Hi Nicolas,

We can not give medical advice over the forums. The best thing you can do is see a physio and get diagnosed. Avoid hurting it more in the meantime.
