If you're having trouble with your rotator cuff you probably shouldn't be doing muscle building exercises, instead, improve range of motion by alternating the following two exercises:

1. Standing, arms straight out from the shoulders, parallel to the ground, move your arms back as far as you can, keeping them parallel to the ground. Then cross your arms at your chest, one arm above the other. Repeat, alternating the arm that's on top. Do not perform this stretching exercise fast, it should be slow and deliberate. It is recommended that you do this for 10 reps, 3 times a day.

2. Standing, arms hanging at your side, move one arm in an arc, going forward, up, back and back to the side, then do the same with the other arm. Again, it should be slow and deliberate and not to the point of causing pain.

With both exercises, you should feel the stretch but no pain.

There are several exercises featured on the Men's Fitness website that are designed to reduce sports injuries to the rotator cuff. Due to the smaller size of the rotator cuff muscles and the amount of work demanded of them, they can be torn due to trauma or inflamed from overuse.

External rotation of the shoulder is a common exercise to work the rotator cuff muscle. If your muscles have been injured it is advisable to visit a medical professional, as long term damage can occur if not treated correctly.

What is deltoid tendonitis?

Tendonitis is inflammation, irritation, and swelling of a tendon, which is the fibrous structure that joins muscle to bone. While Tendonitis can effect any tendon it is not common to find Tendonitis in the deltoid tendon.

What is calcium buildup in shoulder muscles?

Calcific tendonitis refers to a build-up of calcium in the rotator cuff (calcific deposit). When calcium builds up in the tendon, it can cause a build up of pressure in the tendon, as well causing a chemical irritation. This leads to pain. The pain can be extremely intense. It is one of the worst pains in the shoulder (the other being Frozen Shoulder ). In addition to the chemical irritation and presssure, the calcific (calcium) deposit reduces the space between the rotator cuff and the acromion, as well as affecting the normal function of the rotator cuff. This can lead to subacromial impingement between the acromion and the calcium deposit in the rotator cuff when lifting the arm overhead.
