One of the cool things that the TI folks talk about and I've been trying to master is to basically just anchor yourself with your arm and not pull yourself through with it. It's the force you use to pull yourself through that, I believe, causes the shoulder problems. This is a hard one for me to grasp because I think we all believe that we've got to be working the arms just as hard as the legs but not so, according to some.
Rotating the hips helps with this and I often fall back into pulling hard with my arms but, the stronger my legs get, the closer I get to this feeling of "swimming through" your arm position and just using it as an anchor to push through from.
