how many of you do rotator cuff work on a regular basis?

[jerkbox]

i don't usually, but I did some light stuff the other day.....I'm suprisingly sore.

 

[c-sharp minor]

Every shoulder workout includes rotator cuff exercises.

I had some pain a few years back, and including a few 'cuff exercises in my routine seemed to help.

 

[from zero]

I warm them up before every chest/shoulder workout.

I really should hit them directly more often though.

 

[KillahBee]

I do b/c I am still in the midst of a rotator cuff injury. I would suggest everyone does some rot cuff exercises at least once a week. It's one of those injuries that you don't think about until you have it, and it ain't no fun.

 

[GoldenDelicious]

i work them all the time, with anything- cans of coke, against a wall

shoulder injuries do that to you

 

[hardrock]

I warm them up before chest/shoulder day.

 

[John H.]

Should these exercises (for the Rotator Cuff) be before or after other shoulder exercises? I have seen in books BOTH viewpoints. So who is right on this? Before or after and why? Can anyone give examples in detail of damn good exercises for Rotator Cuff? Any Physicians that specialize in this area that would contribute to this subject? Thanks. Take Care, John H.

[onerepmaximum]

One rep: are refering to Flogging the Angry Bishop? or to actual r.cuff work?

if its the latter: what do you do? I have issues with my left shoulder lately that need adressing before bad things happen. I need some real advice here.

 

[Code]

I do, but only cuz I tore mine many years ago, and if I don't warm the shit up I get wicked pain the next day.

I was talking about the bishop thing. Sorry. It seems like those rubber band things would be good for rotator work though.

Sounds like a plan, asscoreyfeldman

 

[jerkbox]

turdboy......lol

 

[PIGEON-RAT]

i do them every time i do shoulder work

i really hurt my RC in both shoulders a year ago and i never want to do that again

i haven't had any pain since i started doing the RC exercises

 

[canadianhitman]

I work them during my warm-up on chest day with power bands.

 

[Smurfy]

what type of movements are we talking about here? I do dumbell cleans every week not sure if that qualifies but i think it does. Are you guys talking about band work? Internal and external rotations? what.

 

[jerkbox]

i did bye-bye's on one of them balls with dumbells

and I did external rotations with a dumbell lying on my side on a bench, and standing with a cable. i didn't think to do inward rotations.....

What the FUCK are bye byes ...

[Smurfy]

[RottenWillow]

I did a lot of rehab on my rotators in oct and nov of last year. One and two pound weights, front and lateral raises. Did the trick. Now I'm benching 135 for 5 with no pain at all anymore.
