Well, I told her how I am healing my shoulder thru hanging and she was pretty fascinated. I told her there is no way I can have surgery done and miss any work so she is on board with me trying to carry on with no surgery.
Did you know that gorillas and chimpanzees never have rotator cuff problems? because swinging from branches is good for you. lol
Trust me, this works!!!!!! So grateful. I came across this guy. My sho8ulder has improved dramatically since I started on this.



heal your own shoulder

that's awesome if you can maintain it dzone. look at the shoulderklock on elitefts. supposed to be a pretty bad ass tool for helping shoulders heal and rehab. i am pretty sure that's what it's called. you got a lot of stuff torn up for damn sure man

Thanks Guns! I will check that out. If I can make a comeback in the gym after this injury, it will be a miracle. Thats what Im shooting for. The show must go on.
I told the surgeon that I havent taken a vacation or a day off from work in 25 years and I cant miss work for surgery. She was great. We talked about everything. She even said "we could talk for hours!" haha...unfortunately she is married. lol

Thanks for telling me about that shoulderok. I watched a ton of videos on it and I just ordered one. Im hoping that the torn tendon tissue will eventually scar over and wont be constantly throbbing pain, then I can train the muscles that are left. With 3 tendons torn from the bone, I just hope I can get enough stability from the other remaining muscles to regain function and be able to do stuff with it again. Even if I got the surgery, theres that chance of re-tearing it and be all for nothing. Cant wait to get this shoulder rok
