[QUOTE="Brooksy Chuck, post: 12198, member: 44"] am trying to think of what to ask my Physical therapist about progressing forward with shoulder workouts- i think he is about ready to release me he says there is nothing more he can do.. yet i still have some restrictions any ideas? when i asked him last time about more exercises he said "what more could you want" he has me doing 14 exercises that take about 90mins most of the focus is on shoulders and i am supposed to do them 4x a week, with that much time it is hard to fit anything else in. i asked him about using the graviton to to weight assisted pull ups and he didn't like that idea. i also asked about military press and he said he wasn't too keen on "overhead " for folks that have had shoulder issues. my shoulders feel great though after the repair and i dont understand the restrictions, he mentioned if i were to do military press to do it standing up and push up with my opposite leg to support the shoulder- it looked like "jane fonda" exercise. when i asked him if i could rock climb in the future he said "come back and see me for training" i have a tendency to be really "gung ho" i want to be careful but i also want to be able to train . he also said no dips (even with weight assisted) are these restrictions common with rotator cuff repairs? any suggestions on how to ask about going forward? thanks [/QUOTE]
