Dunno why I tried, was having a good workout took v-max pump and started straight away so it would kick in half way through. Was doing overhead press's and e-z curls and just thought fuck it I'll try! Yep I am lucky now!!! Euromillions here I come ha ha, yeah right!

I think upright rows are The WORST exercise for damaging your rotator cuffs and causing you shoulde problems!! I will never ever do them.

Yea i read that somewhere and stopped doing them, used to make my shoulder click like with pullovers. What about behind the neck pull downs and presses? I like doing behind the neck presses but i definitely did something to my shoulder the other day after doing them. When would you train rotator cuffs after chest and shoulders?

I dont see the point in any thing thats too much of an unnatural movement.
Uprught rows i personally believe..although a good exercise for development of traps and rear delts they put to much strain on the rotator cuff of supraspinatus whilst being stretched which i think can lead to a risk of injury.

This might sound like a stupid question but ive never been good at arm wrestling and my bench has never really got over 60kg in 3 n half years of training, do u think thats a weak rotator cuff? And how and when would you train them?
