[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 136788, member: 14411"] Great post, especially for us over 60 guys. This is what has worked for me for the past 3 years: [LIST] [*]Chains or bands – If the lower range of a motion causes pain but the upper range does not, try using chains or bands to add resistance in the upper range. Bands alone are also worth a try. In general using a wider range of activities (e.g. sled pulling, sprints, ruck marching, strongman throws, etc.) rather than just the typical strength moves is a good idea [*]TB500, BPC-157 and GH secretagogues – Believe the hype. Especially for TB-500. [/LIST] I have been working exclusively with bands for 3 years and have recently returned to dumbells for a few things, but 75% of what I do is bands and pushups. Certain exercises I loved and was raised on are things of the past. BPC 157 helped heal my non repaired shoulder and I will look into TB 500. CBD 35 mg before bedtime also works for me. I am fortunate that one of my sons is a doctoral student in physiology and is always available for consults and corrective exercise suggestions.
