Exercises you avoid

[Determined]

Flat barbell bench press(always ends up hurting me)
Seated shoulder press with dumbbells(have dislocated shoulder before doing it which causes problem with first exercise I believe)

I avoid backwards running (always trip a few miles in), karaoke spin class (sing out of key), goat yoga (always get a goat that is gasy).....

Lower back injuries result in most on the job injuries in my trade. I couldn't justify pulling ridiculous amounts of weight off the floor after doing it for 8hrs a day. Deadlifts to me were asking for trouble. I also stay clear of the hack squat as it kills my knees every time.

Same. Flat barbell bench press does a number on my shoulders. I can do incline presses on the Smith machine up to about 255 and then the same thing happens. I've found alternatives, though.

Can’t do upright rows (high pulls) anymore due to injuries and impingement. Shrugs and front raises are ok but uprights hurt for days even with a cable and less than 100lbs.

Using a Smith machine for upright rows is the only way I can do them, and I still have to go light. Definitely a lot of stress on the shoulders with this movement.
