There’s probably a deficiency in your movement patterns so understanding the normal ranges of motion for the shoulders and the wrist and seeing where your less strong is important

What movements bring out the pain? Bc it could be tight lats and poor posture in addition to overworking. Isometrics and eccentric controlled upper back work would generally help most folks out

Either that or your movement path for compound lifts could be slightly off, diet and recovery for faster progressions in volume or weight could also play a role

So for the shoulder I would run a movement test where you check things like internal rotation, external rotation, flexion/ extension and keep in mind that everyone’s joints are not exactly the same anatomically so that’s why there’s a range that they provide for acceptable movement
