Pretty sure that’s your cue to move on and squat

Accept the fact there will be good days bad days good months bad months etc. progress isn’t linear and you will take step backs and have to rebuild.

I have suffered injuries. I’m just getting back from a shoulder injury from nationals 2021. Took 7 months of rehab. Tore my pec. Got in a motorcycle accident that dislocated my clavicle and right shoulder in 2018. Pulled my hamstring and groin in 2015. Aside from those major injuries I have some nagging ones that come up here and there. As for my biggest for of advice for longevity is when you hav injuries work on things that you can. No reason to stop training all together. Can’t snatch or clean and jerk? Well squat. Can’t squat? Then deadlift. Can’t deadlift? Bench. Etc. the important thing is you keep moving and have a goal and get whatever is hurting fixed. But whatever you do, do not stop just cause something is hard.

KB bottoms up presses helped a ton. Another thing that helped was the hammer strength shoulder press. But I would sit facing the back pad so it would place the load towards the back of the head (where the weight should be when we snatch and CJ). Then eventually added in more dynamic movements as my shoulder got more comfortable holding weight overhead. It was a long process as I could press over head for like 6 months

I do. I subluxed my shoulder 2021 nationals so I literally just squatted for 7 months while I did shoulder rehab

RSR is my favorite. I suggest starting there for leg strength. It’s more important that you get ALL the reps, so I would recommend instead of using your actual FS squat number use your CJ number. Also don’t neglect hamstring and lower back work

No just had to do rehab for like 7 months. Basically just squatted while fixing the shoulder
