    shaking

    i know this is the wrong forum for this question but got no answer in other and there always seems to be loads of experts looking at these in here.

    i've always done that and thought i was the only one, guess not. same as ironfreak, happens when i do heavy squats and even leg extensions. i am never bothered by it and i'm sure it's no biggie.

    Im not sure why it happens. It happens to me after a heavy day of chest on my last few sets. I believe its because yer muscles are tired or maybe its because yer stabilizers are struggling to control the weight, either way it doesnt bother me much.

    i agree with newlydesigned..maybe your stabalizers are struggling to control the weight. I used to have problems with my arms shaking when I'm benching but it doesn't happen much anymore.

    I see this injury all the time in my office. rotator cuffs are messed up. Go see a professional.

    I have already given you the answer in the other forum, up to you if you want to get it done or not. IT's your rotator cuff, trust me....I'm a professional and treat this all the time.

    i think it happens to all people a little, ive noticed that some people either do it incorrectly or dont know that they are lifting too much. It could be that u just need time to work on that excercise and adapt to it if u dont do it often

    no thats not it , its not to heavy and i have built up my stabalizer muscles. its wierd, but it just happens its been like 3 years and it still happens, but goes away after a couple of sets.

    I'm a powerlifter AND in medical practice, so trust me. This will occur IF the rotator cuff muscles aren't strong enough (have a pathology). Go get it treated immediately beforethis leads to worse problems (which it will).

    i know the weight isnt too much for me, my mate said he thought it was, so i did 2 or 3 with just 1 arm to prove it.
