I find it important to do shoulder shrugs 3 times a week with a light load and arm circles without weights to prevent shoulder injury which takes a long time to heal I recently started working hard on my shoulder strength to do muscle ups.

One of the best ways to avoid injuring it is to not let the elbows go above shoulder height on an upright row.

And realize that my shoulders were pretty weak and need some consistent work. Doubled my pushups from 5 to 10 in 2 weeks and realize that I have been ignoring the shoulders for sometime. I also have a tight neck muscles which sprains very often. And push-ups seem to keep them in good shape as well. I recently got on to the 100 pushups program after a running injury(ITB).

I work on a variety of exercises with my personal training clients including various stretches, external shoulder rotations, and an exercise called I's, Y's, and T's which is basically shoulder raises in the shape of the letters.

I used to do these b/c I was following classic bodybuilding advice but always ended up with a shooting pain in my neck and upper back. Same type of pain can be experienced with heavy upright rows which you also mentioned. Good post, Mike Glad to see no mention of dumbbell shrugs here.

Another thing I'd mention is if you get pain after an exercise, ice it and stay off of it for a week. Sometimes prevention is the best cure. :) -Rafi Great post Chris.

I've always been cautious of shoulder health as my Dad suffered a shoulder injury in his youth and it's plagued him most of his life. Archery actually worked out to be a savior for him.
