Hey, ok I have had a shoulder problem for last 3 years when i initially injured it lifting too much and playing basketball(long story). Anyways, been to doctors, orthopedics etc... they won't do anything, x-rays say there is no problems, most likely weak tendons or damage to connective tissue... Well I broke my hand and didn't do any shoulder lifting for over 3 months and miracously my shoulder seemed to repair itself, and I was having no problems for the last 5-6 months, but I was sick of lifting the same weights and decided I needed to start forging forward and I increased the weights I was lifting and then snap my shoulder went. I normally 1 RM 400 on bench and the other day i tryed just using 50 pd dumbbells to warm up and the shoulder was so weak and in discomfort.
MY question is, any suggestions on rehabing it faster than 4 months off? Think I should just take 3 weeks off of just chest or all shoulder related lifts? Or is it possible if the shoulder is up to it work it light?
I'm doing rotator cup exercises eod and trying to strech it good.
Also, what is your opinions on ever being able to lift heavy and get big? If every time I try to increase my weight on bench or military press my shoulder goes out how am I supposed to get bigger and compete... Is it a useless battle to try and fight this.?
