Most likely using muscles you use when breathing because you are doing new exercises and using muscles you are not used to using. Discuss with your exercise coach.

The diaphragm can spasm during intense exercise and cause referred pain to the shoulder tip. I believe this is what you experience.

10 days right sided chest pain radiates to shoulder blade. Worsens when taking deep breath. A bit of breathing prob but is very hot and humid.
