Hi everyone. I have been doing the interval based workouts posted on the workout section and really enjoying them. However, whenever I try to move up to a faster interval (and add more yards) my left shoulder gets very sore. Does any one have suggestions on how I can strengthen my shoulders to help handle more yards?
There isn't a master's team where I live, but the age group couch has "stroke clinics" for adults that I have been going to once a week to make sure I am using good technique and am not injuring myself with strokes.
Thanks in advance!

I was a diehard shoulder sleeper until my most recent episode with neck/shoulder pain/quote]
I am a die hard shoulder sleeper. And I always want to sleep on my injured left shoulder. :shakeshead: I've tried breaking out of this rut, but can't seem to. I hate sleeping on my back. Lately, when I've had shoulder pain, I think it's from my sleeping position more than my training. But I'm such a bad sleeper anyway, I hate to muck with my sleep position. But I really wish I could switch to being a back sleeper. Maybe that will be my new long term goal and I can report a major breakthrough on that score some day. LOL. (I am doing much better on the posture and head jutting score!)
Also, I don't have any back issues, but I thought sleeping on your back was good for people with back problems? That's what Mr. Fort was told to do.
