The pain is pretty annoying but I can still finish my sets, although it does bother me a little bit in my normal day to day life. One last note, I have very poor shoulder mobility to the point where I can barely get into a high bar squat position, so I am thinking that has something to do with it. I am 29 and been through the novice lp and am now doing a hlm template. Thanks for any advice.
