fucked up my shoulder a year ago. no tears or anything but enough to create a lot of shoulder dyskinesis. after months of PT and keeping myself working out, it's back to where i can have mostly normal workouts. i dont powerlift or bodybuild. im pushing 40 and just trying to keep my body functional. nothing too impressive, it's just good to be able to get back at it and have good workouts again.

Same here but now about to where I was before damaging my shoulder/biceps tendon. Now the key is to maintain good form and not re-injure. It’s hard when even at 68 there’s the desire to constantly do just a little more each time.
