 Member 2272, 339 posts SQ 102.5, BP 50, DL 140292.5 kgs @ 65kgs UnEq | Sucks dude. Hope you're feeling better soon. Listen to the physio, and don't do stuff that makes it hurt worse as you go on. It is not worth it. You might want to give dieting a break; I've heard many anecdotes about injuries due to under-recovering. A setback is the setup for a comeback (unattributed quote off some message board.) Next time you know more, and don't make the same mistake again. Make a different one instead  | ||

Should have a good one to one about it with physio next session now I'm in enough pain to actually be specific about the injured area.....fingers crossed  | ||

With rest I hope you can make it back to 100% quickly. Will you be relegated to legpress machines for a while or are you still able to do some stuff?PS. 120kg deadlift! Congrats that's excellent!! | ||

Member 2236, 270 posts SQ 100, BP 60, DL 140300.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | Cheers buddy, fingers crossed I don't get any bad new this afternoon at physio, I think I'll manage some of my routine, just can't do any push exercises atm, can't even put my arm up above my head normally without pains kicking in yeah deadlifts feeling better each time I do them, hopefully the niggles I get with my back will be sorted soon too, so hopefully get some proper deadlifting in, still working on my squat tho! My biggest downfall and even prgress wise is benching and arm work alike, going to be so long before pregressing here I think, probably mainly down to having no arms or chest to start with!? | ||

Member 2272, 339 posts SQ 102.5, BP 50, DL 140292.5 kgs @ 65kgs UnEq | Just a heads up from wiegieboards thread; Low bar squats, while great, tend to need more shoulder flexibility. Might want to bear that in mind if you decide to try them. Some good stuff here; http://startingstrength.com/resources/forum/showthread.php?t=1... | ||

Member 2236, 270 posts SQ 100, BP 60, DL 140300.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | had a look, lots of stuff mentioned, really should wait till shoulder is better for sure before trying out lower bar like you said, had a more in depth physio yesterday with the Wales 1st football head physio, diagnosed that the supraspinatus ligament in my rotator cuff is what is causing me my pains etc, did some ultrasound treatment and exrecises, i now have to perform 3 exercises a few times a day, back to see him on monday again for more treatment | ||

Glad though that you've been diagnosed and given stuff to do for it. Here's hoping you'll be back to health soon enough. I think that Heather is right in saying you should give it a wee bit of time and some flexibility work first to keep yourself safe. It's harder to get the position for low bar. | ||

Member 2236, 270 posts SQ 100, BP 60, DL 140300.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | shoulder coming along well, and back being sorted, can start training again, but stay low or avoid painful exercises  i'm not confident about training, but i'll take it easy and keep at my home physio exercises | ||
