Rehabilitation Weight Loss and Shoulder Joint Injuries

[KnightTemplar]

Fair enough. Depends on the injury I guess. I tried it a couple of times.. Didn't work. Ill probably be doing weighted pushups (prison style or with a vest) or smith machine from here on out.

You find Smith Machine Bench easier on your shoulders than Dumbbell or Swiss Bar Bench?

I mean, I get how it's easier in the sense the Machine is stabilising the bar for you, but you're also moving the bar in a fixed path. You can't adjust it to suit yourself.

I’m not doing any benching right now. Straight pushups and fly

Most shoulder friendly OHP is the Kettlebell Press because you can rotate your arm and the weight rest on your forearm not your wrist.

Face-pull and rear delt raises are all shoulder joints friends.

Warm-up and reload are always here too.

Facts but it’s the ac joint. Doesn’t love narrow/front angled exercises compared to other types of shoulder injuries

Dumbbell overhead press works very well.

And pull days are more irritating the. Push days now that I’ve stopped benching

I don’t know man.. if you haven’t injured yourself yet free weight is better — but once you have injured yourself.. I’ve at least found that the less stabilization involved.. the better it feels

That’s why weighted pushups are the cream de la crem for an injured shoulder

Your whole upper body can be used to stabilize.. — think firing a rifle vs a pistol.
