I get the same problem and it starts clicking, ive been experimenting with band pull parts daily and they seem to be helping. Could be worth a try.Unfortunately my shoulder is not thanking me today for the rows... External rotation is sort of painful.

I tried that and there is a small abit of discomfort but nothing to worry about for me. For me I think it's caused from the pullups, I found I wasnt keeping my shoulders blades back so at the bottom they were going foward, keeping them back during the pull ups has reduce the amount of pain I get in the shoulder. Im not doctor or expert though so I've just been experimenting with stuff Ive found online from experienced coaches.That's what I get. Do you find at all if you do the following it is painful - hold onto a door frame and sort of pull on it really hard in a dumbell row motion - then suddenly let go. It's something you might do in rock climbing, (holding onto a hold to pull yourself into the wall, then suddenly you come off) and it kills me.
I also get clicking on close grip bench press, or benching without an arch.
At the moment I'm sore so definitely no band pull aparts or stretches of any kind till it's better. I've read this is bad especially if it's shoulder instability, which I think it might be.
I agree. I do all of my chins neutral grip now except for when I actually want to go for a 1rm. Better for shoulders and elbows and because it's slightly harder I don't need to use as much weight either. (not too sure how much weight my roof mounted chinup bar can holdBut it's been tested to 125kg so far.)
what grip do you use for muscle ups?
Just outside shoulder width. Because of my previous shoulder issue I still suck at dips and going any wider than shoulder width is terrible.
Yeah...ok...time to possibly start a riot here.
This may not be the right thread for it but hey....
I have noticed a lot of these cross fit type exercises claiming to do great numbers but i never see them dead hang, they always drop weights without doing the negative, etc.
Now my limited amateur experience (in other words all self taught with no proper guidance) makes me think that dropping bars is acceptable when powerlifting. When doing weights for shape the negative is possibly the most important bit?
Am i in the wrong thread and / or am i completely alone on this one?
mega kipping lol
i can't even kip properly. guessing this is a good thing

its pretty easy, its just a thrust of the hips same as with a kettlebell swing then basically horizontally pull yourself to the bar. To do another, consiciously push yourself away from the bar then repeat.
Highly dont recommend it if you like keeping your scapulas in one piece.
same.
I didn't know it was bad for your shoulders either so that gives me one more reason not to try!
guys my left scapula would not like it much at all!
plus I can't poke fun at kippers and then give it a red hot go, can I?
lolz ... happy sticking with a non-kip mode
I've been doing shoulder-width pullups for a while.. I thought I'd switch to some hammer-grip chins, but I did them from a dead hang each time. It's funny how even though you are taking off the tension for that period, it is so much harder.
Kipping is lame, why not just call it cheating like we do on every other exercise where you use momentum.
