Hi guys,

I did some push ups the first time this week after my little shoulder injury I got from playing cricket (I'm a horrible bowler :p)

Anyway I noticed that for the moment, for god knows what reason, I'm doing shoulder push ups :huh:
Even when I switched into easy push ups ( when you sit on your knees) I noticed that I didn't bend my elbow proper.

Any advice on how to get things back to what they were?
 
You'll just have to work on your form first, like doing girly pushups using your knees (lol...had to pop a joke there). Honestly, that's where you start and then once you get the stability back up and your form move on to something more comlex. It's good that you've recognized your form, or lack thereof and are focusing on it rather than just pushing through. Common mistake.
 
Multiple things from your body trying to protect itself to psyching yourself out. Who knows? I notice things like this where I'll get a slight injury and then have to really focus on something that seemed very effortless before.

Great post. Same thing happened to my lower back a few weeks ago.

Keep doing them. That's the only way to be able to do more. Do them when you wake up, at lunch, and in the evening. Start out with 3 sets of 10, then try to increase it by 1 every half week.
 
Hi Amobokoboko,
Did you took x-ray of your elbow? Does it pains when you exercise?
It is found common that bowlers have this problem. Better consult some doctor at earliest.
