I injured my shoulder 3 weeks ago, torn rotator cuff o algoIt is still to painful to even do a basic pushup and has restricted my range of motionIs it over for me? Will I ever lift again? How do I recover?
I would have given you the answer but this "o algo" shit is getting annoying
>>77269005English motherfucker!!
>>77269005Stop benching and anything else that irritates it. If it pops it, stop it.Strengthen the shoulder girdle to hold the joint in place while it heals. Interior rotation, exterior rotation, machine rows with low range of motion, cable side raises. Do low weight high volume and gradually step up weight. Step down weight if you re-injure.The shoulder joint is the weakest in the body because it's mostly muscles holding it in place. If your front shoulder & chest is too big, it can cause injury by pulling shoulder out of socket. Gotta strengthen back and sides of shoulders, as well as entire back.Continue eating protein and especially collagen or glycine, especially before workouts. Cut most fats and carbs to keep fat off, but otherwise eat maintenance. Don't eat calcium rich foods with glycine/collagen, calcium impedes protein absorption. Do a separate calcium/fat/dairy meal if you have to.Do daily band versions of shoulders physical therapy, low intensity. Goal is to get blood flowing to it daily to speed healing. Heating pad helps too. Massage is great.Shoulder brace can help too.BPC157 injections help heal this BTW
>torn rotator cuffask doctor you mong this is probably the worst joint to fuck up in your body
>>77269005How do I avoid injuring my shoulder?
>>77269005Just stop moving position to get another rep, aka go to muscular failure instead of systematic failure or failure of the exercise to be more accurate. The main muscle used in a movement is when you just fail the rep like you practiced right? You can do wide grip flat back bench, you just have to do ridiculously low weight until the awkward position improves by doing it as many sessions a week as possible.
