It's time for an update on how I am getting on with The Ultimate Rotator Cuff Training Guide. Their rehabilition exercise program is six weeks long split into three progressive two-week segments. I've chosen to repeat weeks 3/4 rather than move on to weeks 5/6. At my age you don't heal quite as fast as you used to.

I definitely feel that I am making progress. I can now do a kneeling press-up with only a slight twinge. Another stretch that I do based on internal rotation of the shoulder now has a greater degree of pain-free movement. I emailed Brian Schiff, the author, about the latter to try and understand more about what was happening anatomically and he was kind enough to reply. Finally I've been able to reintroduce a modified chest exercise into my weight training routine, although I'm using quite light weights for that at the moment.

So I think that's quite promising and hopefully in a few more weeks everything should be back to normal.
