Traded my adjustable dumbbells for kettlebells after a 3 week test run

I swapped my set of PowerBlocks for a pair of 24kg kettlebells on Facebook Marketplace last month and my shoulder pain from benching finally disappeared, has anyone else found a weird swap that actually solved a problem?

Oh man, that's actually kinda wild... I got a weird trade too. @emmajackson, I swapped a rowing machine for a heavy bag once and it turned out my shoulder was actually just mad at all the pulling motions.

Honestly, is your shoulder pain really gone or did you just stop doing the thing that was causing it? Kettlebells are fine but people act like theyre some magic cure for bad form.
