Hey everyone,
First of all, I wanted to thank Derek Miles to responding to my first post regarding a rotator cuff strain. I took his advice and slowly got into resistance training with a barbell. I started in August with a bodyweight of 150 lbs at 5’11, a 110 lb squat, 95 lb bench, 70 lb press, and 110 lb deadlift. Last week I squatted 240, benched 170, pressed 115, and deadlifted 250 (all of these for reps… fahves lol) at a bodyweight of 170. I have to say that not only physically am I feeling better but mentally as well.
I just had a followup question regarding my strain. Should I expect it to simply fade away completely over time? It doesn’t physically stop me from doing anything, instead it feels like listening to a leaky faucet in a quiet house… kinda driving me crazy that there are still minor sensations.
Its improved significantly thus far, so I dont see any reason for it to stop getting better, but its been a couple months. It’s honestly just mentally exhausting to have this monkey on my back.
