Shoulder hurts during/after BP
I wanted to ask my trainer, but he is hard to talk to.
My right shoulder had been giving me a little pain during my BP, he has me doing only decline right now.
It was fine today, but my left one has been hurting as the day went on with the same kind of pain? I've been pushing my personal bests each session,.
Am I going to hard? Likely bad form? Any suggestions? Don't want this to get worse.

I have an idea that I might know what the issue is but first a couple questions..
How often do your train chest?
When you say you’re pushing personal best every session.. are you maxing every session?
Do you do any mobility work before and after sessions?

I do decline bp 4 days a week.
5x5 Mon Thu
3x15 Tue Fri
Aiming for failure before end of sets and dropping plates to try to finish if I can keep my endurance going
Also near vertical handstand push-ups till failure same days, same number of sets. This was my 3rd week on this routine.
That's my main chest shoulder exercises, rest wouldnt be related.
Thats is what my trainer outlined for me
I do stretch before and after.

Dude you’re destroying your shoulders by way overtraining. Why would you do bench 4 times a week? That’s 100% the reason your shoulders hurt. Cut the frequency in half at least. Take a week off from chest and come back doing once a week and work up to twice a week tops. If your trainer has you pushing to failure 4 times a week on the same bodypart you need to find a new trainer.

Every few weeks I'll throw in a 4-5 days straight schest routine.
But you gotta have form tight or all the shoulder impingement will kill your rotator cuff

That's what my trainer set me up for mass gaining. I'm a lightweight, 145lbs, but I'm not sure he expected me to be pushing the weight I am lifting.
Might be time to draft my own routine and have the experts here take a look at it.

In fact my whole routine is the same exercises 4vdays in a row, but I can't stay sore and it focuses on every major muscle group.

I had shoulder issues in bench press, as well as bicep insertion pain.
I found a slightly wider grip, and elimination of paused bench. Also, instead of lowering slowly, letting the weight fall faster on the way down.
