Quick question,

Have any of you guys heard the arnold press causing problems with the rotator cuff?

I'm using it for a booster set of 100 reps with a very light weight.

Should I be concerned?

Well I'm supossed alternate between two different exercises for the shoulders but would prefer to stick with dbells.

dbpress is one, perhaps i could use 1 arm press for the alternative.

or upright rows? never been a big fan of them either too.

how about palms forward for one and palms facing eachother as the other exercise

Yes I think that would be enough of a variant.
