How do i fix a shoulder impingement? Have had it for a couple years now and want to get it fixed so i can start lifting again.

try fixing your upper to lower trap imbalance
most people who have impingement have it
I recommend reverse shrugs in the dip machine

Thanks! Any other advice you can give me?

I mean can't you go on webmd. I think it was basically rest.

Try internal and external shoulder rotations with a band

And another thing you can do it shoulder dislocations. Holy fuck these will probably be uncomfortable the first few times.

he's been resting for couple of years, I think he needs to fix the issue now

don't do internal rotations if you have an imbalance, you're just keeping things imbalanced

If i do shoulder dislocations is there i chance i can fuck shit up and make it even worse?

no, but I doubt it does that much, I'm not a huge fan of stretching
I am a huge fan of myofascial release, though

What muscles would this target specifically?

lower traps
people with impingement have stronger upper traps than lower traps, so by strengthening the lower traps it will hopefully fix the posture
Thanks iopq. How often would you do those exercises?
