bluef0x, upright rows will destroy your shoulders eventually. I used to do them too. Stop.

Could you elaborate on this? Upright rows are probably my favorite exercise - I am able to do them wihtout any pain in the wrists or shoulders. My friends/workout partners won't do them because of these complaints.

Are upright rows bad for everyone or solely for people with shoulder impingements? I have been using this exercise pretty steadily for the past 10 years or so (I'm 26 fwiw).

Is it just a matter of eventually wearing down the rotator cuffs and/or causing bone spurs? Thanks.
