What was the injury (I thought you said labrum).....

[Gym-Rat]

What was the injury (I thought you said labrum).....

Just a partial rotator tear.. Took 6 months to heal (this time)...
Like most long-time lifters, bad shoulders loaded w/ scar tissue.

Yeah, I'm in a similar state - but confused - the tear can't heal, can it?  I thought you just had to work around these things.

Everything heals I guess (only to a point). Doc just said "no need for surgery, just let it takes its course, it will take some time".
6 months ago the empty bar hurt, now back up to where I want to be with much less pain. (Still not, and never will be, 100%).

Great to hear.

Excellent.

8 years ago had each shoulder fixed with a distal clavicle excision (cut cm off each end) and subacromial decompression.  That ended my issues.....until recently went in for pain, and have a non specific labrum tear and some RC fraying in the right.

So, I can do close grip stuff and neurtal grip viking press stuff without pain, but a regular bench or DB in the wrong path hurts, so I'm going to amp up the RC exercises and stick with the close grip only for a bit.

What in the fuck was that? .5” shrug. That’s fucking embarrassing at best. Also a fat fuck.

Nice. Yeah, normal DBell bench hurts and a normal bench still hurts, I do them fairly close with hands right at edge of where knurl starts.
For DBell bench, I start in bottom position w/ hands facing each other (almost like a flye) and at the top I end with palms facing FWD (like a normal DBell press) then lower in same fashion (palms facing).

Like you said, work-around it...

Perfect.  I'm doing the same motion on DBs, but doing a floor press version of it right now to not over extend.

Truly Sorry to hear brother hope your keeping ok

There is no reason Scott can' train and lift other than being a pussy

It depends on his heart function mate when I was in hospital and functioning at 35% heart function I couldn’t even brush my teeth without getting dizzy and out of breath and Scott’s heart troubles were far worse than my own
