If you ever feel like you have gotten a strain then just stop working it. Stretching or pumping or anything like that is just encouraging more damage. I know that sometimes you just have a knotty...

Doesn't sound like a big deal, IW. Like you said, just implement some "prehab" (since it doesn't sound like "rehab" is necessary) and you should be golden. It it hurts...don't do it.

Look at the links I pointed you to and get back to me. It's probably just rotator cuff tendonitis secondary to overactive deltoids, pecs, lats, etc...maybe a primary impingement.

You're doing good.

For what it's worth, on the pullups, you've been sticking to sets of 5 pretty much? If your goal is to break the 25 pound barrier then don't worry about reps as much as weight....
