ah right. well the woirk today did seem to ease the pain but if its counter productive ill sack it off for now.
quite a few moves cause discomfort. in particular, what do i do with chest day? because that is not comfortable on the shoulder either!

gotta say the floor presses did cause some discomfort today when i did them for triceps.
just to clarify, you suggesting i do the top 3 untill the pain is no longer present?

ive tried these ways -
elbows at the side with a hammer grip
arms out diaganolly with a grip so the db is diagonal with the arm
like a normal bench press with arms at a right angle and dbs straight.

just finished 20 minutes of HIIT sprinting in the park 
topping it off with 2 pints skimmed milk.
recovered well between sprints i feel, the stopping smoking has definatley helped me.

i'd resist the temptation for any pressing
at least until the pain subsides
which means no chest, shoulder work

problem with DB rows is my left side. i use the form of putting my leg out to the side on which ever side im lifting the weight. its fine on the right but on the left i keep hitting my leg with the DB, even though its right out to the side 
did the usual 20 mins or so cardio afterwards.

nice deads
thanks raj.
was a bit of a bummer though. my shorts were washing so i had to wear combats and roll them up. well this rolled up bit caused a lump above my knee and the bar kept catching on it! so was quite a bit of work getting the bar past them, otherwise i think i could of done another rep or so.
