My question is, im doing Squats, and I noticed that after I finish a set, my arms and shoulders are a bit sore from holding the bar. I fairly sure my form is correct, as I've worked with a trainer.

is the soreness from unflexable shoulders? or something else?

thanks.
I have very tight shoulders that are not very flexible and after a couple of sets of heavy squats I feel tight in the shoulders also. I wouldnt worry about it. But, look up a video on the net and make sure your form is in check to be safe.
