Well it’s been nearly 6 months to the day since I injured my shoulder.  It has taken that long for it to heal.  Let it be known that the shoulder takes LONGER than any other body area to heal!  That and the back, which I threw out last week.  That’s an entirely separate post.  Eh [...]

Understanding

Have you ever tried to explain something to someone that was very difficult?  We can gather clues to what someone is talking about through context and cognitive thinking.  I think that’s the way to put it.  Blue is the color of the sky, right?  What if I’d never seen the sky?  What is blue?  It’s [...]

Shoulder update: Week 10

I can say now that my shoulder feels about 85% up to par.  Which is funny since I can’t wait to play golf again.  I’m really not that great at it but it’s hella fun to just get out there on a hot day and hit a tiny object with a metal stick towards a [...]

Shoulder: Week 7

Honestly I have good days and bad days.  So far, today is a good day.  Slow healing makes for extreme frustration.  Doing the exercises really seems to help.  I’m quite sore after I do them but I take that as meaning those muscles aren’t very worked.  It’s not the shoulder muscle that you see on [...]

Raining and pouring

So last week I had two crown preps plus the full mouth debridement.  It’s quite lovely I tell you.  Well it’s been my experience that if I have teeth that are borderline “flare ups” and any work is done around them.  They will flare up.  That means they get aggravated to the point of needing [...]

Shoulder update

6 weeks to the day now.  My shoulder still hurts but it’s made good progress.  A lot of movements I couldn’t make without pain early on, I can now make.  There are still some movements that give me trouble.  My range of motion is excellent but when I try to lift something in a certain way, [...]

Remember those updates?

Yeah remember a few weeks ago I was on this crusade for daily updates and a healthy lifestyle?  Remember how on Day #2 I strained my rotator cuff?  Ok, well it’s on the mend.  Still hurts but it feels substantially stronger.  There isn’t really a valid reason why I can’t do any amount of exercise [...]

Daily Update

Sorry I’m not doing these… well… daily!
I’m learning quickly that rotator cuff injuries are the devil devil devil.  These things take a long time to heal.  I’ve been working it a bit too hard the past couple of days and I’m going to give the elliptical trainer a break I think.  It just feels sore [...]

Daily update

Weekend was decent.  Made it to the gym.  Didn’t eat super but didn’t eat bad either.  Shoulder got sore yesterday but seems better today.  Will try to gym this evening.

Day 18

Another good day.   Ate well.  Gymmed well.  I’ve done interval cardio for three days in a row now. I know that’s not exactly the best thing.  Until my shoulder heals I’m staying away from strength training my upper body.  Probably another week or so I might start on it real lightly.
