If your shoulders feel jammed and overhead is a struggle, stop hammering the shoulders, the problem is usually one level down. Your shoulder blade can only move well if your upper back (thoracic spine) moves with it. Slouch all day and that mid-back stiffens, so your shoulders take the strain.
Free the spine, and the shoulders follow.
Beginner fixes, daily:
Open-book thoracic rotations β 6 each side
Wall slides β 10 reps
Shoulder CARs β 3 slow each side
