Shoulder Injury Prevention / Care: 7/19/2012

Scott Herman leads us in a shoulder rehabilitation program. This program is very standard in the rehabilitation world and the exercises are valid. If or when you decide to add a weighted dumbbell make sure that it is something that is light and not too heavy. Even if you were able to perform front deltoid raises with 30 lbs, that doesn't mean that you can perform that weight now that you are injured. If you are not injured, then you can still do this workout as an alternative warm-up for your shoulder workout.
