It's been 6 months since I subluxated my shoulder in boxing. I've been hitting the gym regularly and strength is up in everything except the bench which is around the same # as before my injury. I feel totally fine and have been cleared by the doctor and PT a long time ago.
My current (p)rehab concists basically of doing a lot of rubber band work and external rotations in addition to my normal lifting routine. And some TGU's (turkish get ups), but my roof is too low so it's just every now and them at the gym.
I'm wondering about a couple of things though:
has anyone returned to boxing or MMA after dislocating/subluxating their shoulders?
What kind of other joint strengthening excercises can I do to make my shoulders take more impact? I'm 200 pounds now but my joints are probably not that much stronger than they were when I was 170.
