Kevin Herring Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I've got a slight twinge in my right shoulder (job related). So I'm not injured and would like to stay that way. How well does the Rings Warm Up (just the warm up) address shoulder rotator cuff health? Does anyone have another recommendation to books or web sights that give advice for non-injured persons?

Kevin Herring Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 I should amend this by saying while injury free I have very tight shoulders and biceps. I am doing the handstand mobility as prescribed but progress is slow. So my question is about shoulder health first and having rotator cuff exercises as part of that.

Alessandro Mainente Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Hi Kevim before attempting specific rotator cuff muscles you need release the shoulders tissue by progressing up to foundations 3 and 4. the necessity of having possible range of motion will leads to faster progress on rotator cuff strengthening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Herring Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Thanks. Thought most of my concerns would be addressed within the program without being expressly pointed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanya Hill Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Id also recommend in getting some body work done Kevin. Sometimes you need someone to work out the tissue for you to get a jump start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Herring Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Been a while since I've checked the forums. My how times flies. Tanya, thanks for the suggestion. I'd love to have someone who's knowledgeable have a go at my issues. I really need to reach out in the community to see if there is anyone in the area that knows what they're doing. What search words for the types of treatments should I look for? I know I could get just a "massage" but I'm more interested in results than pampering.

Bas Albinus Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Myofascial release with a lacrosse ball (or similar) helps me a lot to recover from a recent shoulder injury and subsequent surgery. I'm currently doing physiotherapy which is including a great deal of scap shrugs on unstable surfaces, rotator cuff exercises with flex bands or min. weights, weighted mobility and of course stretching! You can find a bunch of stuff on youtube etc and try to find what you need or what works for you - or go straight to the gb online classes - shoulder mobility, for a great full-on shoulder prehab session.https://my.gymnasticbodies.com/oc-shoulder-flexibility-beginner/ If you don't have an injury or any specific problem you ll be just fine with this routine and sticking to your Foundation exercises. An acupressure massage or acupuncture/dry needling once in a while is also not a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
