do you do just weights or do you do lots of dips, and push ups etc as they are the best way to move your muscles into their best position, if ya get me. using your own body weight as supposed to bench presses and dumb bells etc

Is it painful when it clicks?
Or is it jus the sound then what feels like a release of tension?

Unless it hurts mate i wouldn't worry about it.It's just muscle and tendons recovering and not supporting your shoulders properley i rekon.
Oh and if your doing weights 5 times or more a week then it's too much.At least have a week off every 4 weeks if your gonna carry on.

IMHO wouldnt recommend taking a week off at a time... a day or two, or alternating muscle groups and body parts is enough to avoid over training syndrome...
