Shoulder Update


Never really got to do the workout I posted, found I have a complete tear right at the bone of the supraspinatus and a partial tear in the biceps brachii long head. Surgery is still an option and it will be revisited after physical therapy, and that is taking a lot out of my shoulders.
So what I did was I purchased a front squat harness to distribute the weight better on my shoulder and am doing the 12 week Front Squat Program which has me doing front squats Monday & Friday. On Wednesday I’ve been doing a 10 minute EDT block of double kettlebell jerks, not full out in the beginning but getting there now. I follow that with a metabolic circuit which I vary each workout.

I do, do some snatches on my Friday workout, but they seem to be the most problem since I’ve been doing the PT.

One of my favorite metabolic workouts have been incline dumbell press, pull-ups, farmer walks and swings. I do 30 seconds on the press, & pull-ups, farmer walks up & down driveway , swings for 30 seconds,rest until pulse drops @20-30 beats, repeat 2-3 times
