Mate when the shoulder is abducted and externaly rotated it is in the weakest possition regarding tendon strains and dislocation. The shoulder may be able to get to that possition but its an unstable possition to put load on it. That is why we dont pull or press behind our heads. Its not a death sentence but its a a risk that is not necessary when you can achieve the same results in a safe way

@jpl315 I would imagine serious weighted pull ups, since lats a big plus, but really... probably nothing else. Some running and sambo maybe.

Очевидно правая рука была травмирована потому как полностью в локте не разгибается.

@mcgrath111 Yes, that is Russian writing in the background. The kettlebell, or girya as the Russians call it, has a 300 year history in Russia. It has been a competitive sport in Russia since 1948 and the Russian National Team has athletes ranging from 16 to 53. The beauty of the kbell is that they are inexpensive, eliminate the need for big, expensive machines and tedious trips to the gym. A good kbell workout done ~4x a week will give you a body like ancient greek statues.

Странно, но в толчке локти ни разу полностью не разогнулись, я уж подумал физ.особенность такая у человека. Между тем, в рывке (в другом видео), все нормально...

Pretty much only kettlebells, long timed sets. Some heavy one arm jerks and heavy swings for assistance. High rep BB jump squats (same ROM as the jerks). Very straightforward and very specific.

@jpl315 back when Valery was competing i would imagine he trained with kettlebells only. now he doesnt really do that much training i hear.
