I have a rotator cuff (supraspinatus) 50% width full thickness tear that is healing and strengthening (slowly, and trying to escape surgery!!).
👉 BUT because of this problem I also have developed a long head bicep tendinopathy with tenosynovitis to boot. That hurts more than the tear! 👀 The tendon tightens up at night, aches like hell in the front of the shoulder and also inflames with too much load. Because of the stiffness and pain, inability to use much and the loss of overall function, a tendinopathy in the LHB has developed. So it’s a double whammy. Very common after a decent rotator cuff tear that puts your shoulder out of action for 6 months.
➡️ So, if you have also been diagnosed with this, and are struggling then follow my little story and what I am doing for rehab to sort it out. Remember though, I am getting lots of treatment for it and I could NOT do the rehab without the weekly Physio work, mobilisation, soft tissue release and dry needling to keep it on the right track. So make sure you’re seeing someone first and foremost.
1️⃣ First is the “FRONT SPRINTER (band) - eccentric. Meaning I am adding the load on the way down. Check the commentary for all the tips. Second is the “SIDE SPRINTER (band) - eccentric. This one gives more lateral load and minimal front load, still working the LHB tendon but combines the rotator cuff as well especially laterally which is what you need to strength to support the bicep tendon as well as work on the weakness in the cuff if you copped the tear complication in this injury. ▶️ Then back to the FRONT SPRINTER (band) - eccentric but with the anchor point low to add on more load. Be careful on the bottom part it’s where you tend to feel it the most. Sorry about the audio 😬 gets a bit muffled with the mic in my shirt!!...
