Hey what’s up guys. So I’m new to this forum several days now and I’m hoping someone here can give me some first hand feedback.
Six weeks ago, I had my labrum repaired in my left shoulder. It had been injured several years ago downrange and recently (this past November) I re injured it. So I went thru the motions of Pt and what all and finally the docs cut me. Ive been making SOLID progress in my recovery. At week 3 my range of motion degrees were reading at the 7wk mark. I’ve been on con leave since the surgery. I’m doing PT three times a week. My therapist finally gave me the green light to lift and exercise with my right side last week. I’m curious how long it took you guys to get to where you could train with the opposite side and also how long it took you to be able to start using the injured side? And what I mean by using the injured side, I mean actually lifting movements and not just isometrics. I’ve atrophied pretty bad lol. Sucks cuz it’s my dominant arm. I went from bicep size of 18.3flexed down to 15.9/16.1inches. Now granted I still can’t “fully flex” it, but still, WTF?!
How long did it take you guys to gain your size back? Also, what support supps worked best for y’all? I’m thinkin npp, bpc157, maybe low dose growth(fixed my back injury with low dosed growth)… obviously I’m taking in all the proper aminos so I’m covered in that regard. (Also been doin turmeric 3x/day).
Any and all suggestions and comments are totally welcome!!!
Thanks guys in advance!
