Lately when doing these exercises I feel a sharp pain at the bottom of the lift when the bar is touching my chest and also beginning the push (more painful on incline barbell and not so painful on flat dumbell press). I also feel the pain as I have my elbow tight into my body (90 degree angle) and externally rotate. Would the 'sleeper stretch' be something good to do for this?

Thanks in advance,
Ben
