it's painful, but not enough to stop training and I don't think it impacts my lifts...so long as I have my head into my training session and am focused and aggressive. it doesn't seem to get worse and it doesn't impact my life....but it's really annoying.
I feel like I've had it for ages..definitely 6 months and maybe more
Sounds like a shoulder impingement, which I’ve had before. It is irritating and feels like a pinch but not painful enough to prevent you from lifting.
I looked back at your last few workouts. Are you only doing push exercises and no pulling? I know you do rowing for cardio but I think you need to balance your strength training so you aren’t just doing push exercises. I would add things like facepulls, rows, pull-ups/pull downs, rear delt flyes and build up your upper back. Aside from adding pull exercises I would try to stretch/release your pecs often and make sure your shoulder blades are pulled back and down when benching or pressing
