I had a disappointing October this year. Had a surgery for a cyst (in my upper middle back) on the 10th. Was asked not to do any lifting for a couple of weeks. I didn't. But during those two weeks, I sort of aggravated my shoulder pain. My physio labeled it as a Grade 2 Rotator Cuff Tear. Not good news. I've been undergoing physical therapy for the past one week but have been advised to restart training without the BP and OHP by the 20th (2 weeks from now).
So, here's my plan:
1. Get on a 40-day workout program and start with 50%
2. Focus on Squats and Deads only for now
I'm looking for an alternative for BP and OHP that is safe for my shoulders. I think Floor Presses are good but I wanted to validate it here. Another option I have in mind was Decline Presses, but I'm just not sure.
Thoughts? Opinions?
I'm dying to get back into training.
