5 Worst Shoulder Exercises If Over 50!

  1. Behind-the-Neck Press: This puts a lot of stress on the rotator cuff, which can be more susceptible to tears in older adults.
  2. Upright Rows: These can irritate the shoulders and impinge nerves, especially with improper form.
  3. Lateral Raises with Dumbbells Held Too Low: When your arms are below shoulder level at the start, it can strain the rotator cuff.
  4. Dips: These can be tough on the shoulders, especially if you have any pre-existing issues.
  5. Throwing Exercises with Poor Mechanics: Repetitive throwing motions, especially with a baseball or tennis racket, can lead to shoulder pain over time. Facebook:   / bobandbrad
