bench press shoulder and elbow pain

[Brandan Lopez]

hi lately when iv been going heavy i tend to have a bit of elbow pain and some discomfort in my left shoulder on the eccentric part of the bench press and I'm not sure its because i lose tightness with my upper back and shoulders but sometimes i can't tell if my shoulder blades are pinched together but i try to keep my chest as high as possible but when i go light doesn't seem to hurt my main problem is i know has to be the shoulder blades not being pinched together when i go heavy and its killing my progress on the bench. please help!

Post a form check. Maybe we'll be able to figure out what the problem is.
