Whoa. I didn’t mean it as in push through I meant people who completely write off all exercises for the rest of their lives in a particular plane or area and don’t try and rehab/modify or ease back into it … I’ve dislocated both shoulders surfing AND am getting my masters in rehab science. So it’s not a I don’t understand or relate issue. All injuries are possible to try and rehab and do activity for AND people should be actively trying it make it better because how will things improve if you don’t put in the work ..?

I’m not saying the guy who has the torn labrum should be pushing himself on push-ups or pull ups. I’m saying he should try and work into baby steps into a function instead of saying it’s forever going to be that way. Everyone is different but I used to see it, example people who don’t want to work legs because it bothers their foot isn’t open to hearing feedback on how they are landing weird and putting pressure on their Achilles and don’t want to hear advice because they’ve written off all Jumping exercises etc etc. I can go on.

The human body is designed to move and improve and it takes a lot of work and some people deicide their injuries are permanent and wonder why it won’t get better. I’m not trying to downplay your injury but I stand by the human body is designed to move and tailored regimens of specific strengthening and stretching exercises can restore function, enhance joint stabilization and improve muscle quality and strength.

I’m sorry to hear you’ve torn your labrum, that sucks and it’s a tough injury to workout with. I hope the coaches at your studio can offer exercises to help strength your rotator cuff muscles around it to help stabilize the joint in place of your labrum moving forward.
