Thanks built.
I think you're right about the upper back and rear delts. Never heard of face pulls, I'll have to look that up.
Perhaps that might be my problem, not that my chest is strong, but perhaps it's stronger than my back and putting a strain on my back.
I'm constantly tring to correct my posture throughout the day. I'm so used to curling my shoulders inward and slumping forward that it doesn't feel natural to be up straight.
"... broken right collarbone, broken right shoulder, broken left arm...)."
Ouch, I can't imagine having to go through that. In fact the only 2 times I've been in the hostpital and stayed is when I was born and when my daughter was born. *Knock on wood*
Perhaps I'll give my new Dr a chance, got rid of my old one cause she kept fixing the symptoms of things instead of finding the problem. I went into a sports dr or phys therapist for a shoulder injury once and they gave me some special excercises that helpt a lot.
One where I would lean on my left side on a bench, with a weight in my right arm, upper arm stationary at side and lower arm perpendicular to my body, I would raise my arm up as high as I could and then lower it. Helps to strengthen some of the internal support muscles of my shoulder.
