If you have a shoulder injury to your rotator cuff, go to PT for the proper exercises. I had a "small cuff tear" per my surgeon. He neglected to inform me to be aggressive and consistent with my PT as this small tear lead to a full thickness tear 3 years later. That being said, He told me to rethink my Aikido/Judo training and working out as it's time to give it up. First thing out of my mouth was F that & You! I've been hitting PT hard since it happened in Feb of this year. I just started my first of 3 PRP treatments and I'm using 2.5 IU of GH for 4 months in conjunction with my PRP and physical therapy. This injury has really slowed my down. No weight lifting, no Aikido or Judo since Feb and I've dropped 30 lbs from not working out. It sucks. Point is this, if you have a shoulder injury, go to a good PT and get proper treatment, be consistent and aggressive with your exercises, but don't over do it as it's a long slow process, trust me, I know ;)

No injury slows me down
May drop the weight a lot but it's best to keep doing something besides let it just sit and heal
Heck when they did my pops hip in the 70s they had him in a cast from waist to ankle
Now they have you moving asap

Hell if I cut myself I'm all about superglue and if it's bad then I have it checked
lol I Rem a goodie bag sent to me in the sand ---baby wipes --pork rinds -- super glue. Don't get better than that!!!!

Yes I let pork crumbs fall all over my shells

Will this work for ac joint pain as well?
A few years ago I was having shoulder problems. Here's a good article in the database that I did and it helped. I'll repost it for you bro.

HOW TO CURE SHOULDER PROBLEMS (Trust me this will do it 90% of the time)
Dante Trudel IntenseMuscle.com


Shoulder Inpingement Cure - With a large towel or broomstick I want you to hold it with straight arms for the entire time of what i describe in the following movement--a large "rolled up like a rope" beach towel works good but honestly a longer broomstick (without the jbristles) works best in my opinion. Start out with it with a really wide grip (with straight arms) in front of you (on your quads) and with straight arms bring it up and overhead and then down and back to the middle of your back--STRAIGHT ARMS ALL THE WAY--this is going to be very difficult and hard the first couple times out and then will be "old hat" with time----and its going to be painful in a stretching pump kind of way---i want 50 reps each time you do this--one repetition is from in front of your face (all with straight arms) to up overhead and back, and then down all the way to the middle of your back and then back up overhead to in front of your face again (again all with straight arms)--the important part of the movement is the area overhead that is really tight--do all of this carefully/slowly---dont just whip it over and back---if your hand is slipping off the broomstick even with the widest grip, or you cant bring your arms over straight and the start bending on you, you have some serious shoulder inflexibility and need to work this hard and get up to speed (or you could just need a longer broomstick too)--again do all of these revolutions controlled and carefully--push into the stretch as you go along toward the 50 revolutions, your chest will be pushing outward and your shoulders rolling back--your shoulders are going to blow up with so much blood its going to be incredibly painfull pumpwise--Do this once a day at nite as many times a week as you can---sometimes I have people do it every single day---but every time you do it try to move your gripinward (thats the key)----its going to be very hard to do but try your best to move your grip inward for the next 2-4 weeks and your range of motion with shoulders will increase dramatically and any impingement and the majority of other problems should be gone in 2 weeks--also try to move your grip in as you are doing the 50 revolutions--start off with a stretching but relatively easy 10 to warm up some, then try to move your grip in even by a centimeter if you can for the next 20 revolutions and then at 30 try to move the grip in another centimeter--really try to push what you can do stretchwise once your warmed up here--trust me this sounds easy but your going to be muttering "fuck you dante" after you get to your 25th revolution--Ive cured too many shoulder problems with this simple movement now its pretty ridiculous, and this and a menthol rub applied liberally daily and before sleep has cured alot of shoulder/bicepital tendonitis in trainees ---Heres a pic attached to this post so you can get an idea (thanks to a trainee of mine who cured his shoulders with this)--but remember the broomstick goes overhead and all the way back to the middle of the back (he just drew the start of the movement when you begin)

NOTE: He has since stated with the broom stick you don't touch the middle of your back, it's more like a half circle motion.

What's happening? I have had a bad shoulder for years, actually just found out last year there is a small tear in rotator cuff,so I did PT and it feels better, my question is what workouts can I do? Cause I really do not want to re aggrevate this thing because I can not deal with the pain.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Just light weight or what?
Thanks
