Shoulder Rehab Progress

http://www.JasonFerruggia.com/ (Turn your speakers down, music's kinda loud) Quick update- I tore my rotator cuff and labrum which required surgery. I went from 227 to 179 after surgery. I reinjured it a few times during the rehab process by doing stupid stuff. Not too long ago I couldn't even overhead press the bar.

This is from last nights workout. I did the following warm up before this set:
45 x 20
75 x 10
95 x 10
115 x 10

Slowly but surely making progress and getting closer to where I used to be.

@samurai- It takes a while. I'm over a year now. But like I said, I reinjured it a few times and set myself back.

@ shawn- It was years of stupid stuff leading up to it.

I explain more of it on my blog post from 4/27/10

@ fitwarehouse- Yeah, it can be frustrating. Thanks and good luck to you.

on 2nd week after surgery- Labrum and rotator cuff tear. Your video encouraged me to know that I am not 'done with'. Thanks bro, steve

It's my understanding that if you have/had a rotator cuff problem you should stop doing overhead presses. I would get advice from a doctor and/or physical therapist.

I tore my labrum in a bicycle accident when I was 12 years old. I went on to play varsity football and wrestle throughout my high school years, and I'd always be hurting my shoulder here and there. But after taking gold for heavyweight class my senior year in Guam, I finally got shoulder surgery. (6 years after initially tearing my labrum) **my shoulder still gets stiff once in a while** but it is much more stable and my strength is about 85% after 6 months of recovering... Still working hard i
