Dr. is pretty sure I have a torn rotator cuff from his exam/xrays, getting an MRI next week for confirmation. Somewhat scared though for the quoted recovery time. He said 4-6 weeks in the sling but wont be able to start lifting weights for at least 6 months, if not longer.
Any recs for how to stay somewhat in shape during that time? I am not some super buff/fit athlete by any means, by I do keep a routine schedule of weighltifting 3x/week along with a couple days of swimming/running/basketball/etc. Figure I will at least be able to do some light walking and light aerobic activity, but fear of just withering away all of the muscle mass I have built up over the years. Price you pay I suppose of getting older???
