I was Just doing bicep curls and my shoulder made a crackle and now when I move it it always makes a crackle sound but doesn't hurt

You probably over strained a ligament in your shoulder. That's exactly what happened to my boyfriend a few years ago. I think he had been doing pull-ups, somehow lost his focus and dropped dead-weight, dislocating his shoulder. He still gets a bit of crunching sensation when he moves his shoulder.

Take it easy on exercises involving your shoulder for a while. It will heal, but needs some time off to do so.

OK thanks

by the way how long did it take to heal because I have school

[kaylaS91]

yup no problem! It took a while. I think for just short of a year, he couldn't do any more pull-ups because they'd hurt a lot. He could use his shoulder otherwise, just nothing too intense. Took it easy on any workouts that involved the shoulder or used it's full range of motion.

If you have to use your shoulders in doing bicep curls, you are using too much weight. Try warming up next time.

Ok I was doing 35 pound which is a lot for my size
