    Re: persistent shoulder tenderness/feeling of weakness

    hi
    first of all doing strenthening training shoul be

    4-8 reps with gradual loading,4-8 sets long breaks
    or 4 sets with gradual loading 8-12reps short breaks,next 4 eccentrics long breaks.
    u can in 1 month improve up to 100%.
    but as karen said control and coordination are more important.
    re healing proccess
    physical therapy cold,hot laser etc can accelerate healing.
    thanks

    Re: persistent shoulder tenderness/feeling of weakness

    thanks for everyone who's made suggestions! i've definitely seen significant improvements in my shoulder. the discomfort level has definitely declined, and i have been able to do more pushups pain free, as well as moving heavy boxes around the house in general. the cracking noises in my shoulder, however, have appeared to increase , not sure what to make of that.

    have had a couple sessions with a professional rolfer who does cold laser therapy as well, which i think have helped in the recovery process. also started seeing an acupuncturist for the first time, im still kind of skeptical but im willing to try anything to get my arm/shoulder better
