Dealing with Weight Lifting Injuries

It's tough to build muscle, lose fat or get in shape when you're dealing with injuries. Right now, I'm dealing with a shoulder injury. Will it keep me from training? Yes and no.

Obviously, I can't do most things but I can still train my legs so that's what I'll do. I held leg day yesterday and did a lot of squatting. As for the rest of my body, I'll experiment over time what I can and can't do. For those wondering, the injury wasn't caused by my weight training.

A number of years ago I had a rotator cuff injury as well, from tennis. The interesting thing was, I could still go out and play tennis for hours with no pain. Well, almost. The almost was that I could do everything pain free as if I had no injury at all, except serve.

When trying to serve, as soon as I tossed up the ball (the injury was in my serving shoulder), and switched direction from down to up, I felt the most excruciating pain I've ever felt and it stopped my cold.

I couldn't get through the serving motion at all. But, like I said, I could hit hard groundstrokes all day with no pain. In fact, I could still do decline bench presses without any pain, yet I could not do any sort of shoulder pressing movement.

Right now, I can't do upper body work so lower body work it is and I'll see what I can add over time. My training won't stop. If you have an injury see your doctor and discuss options about what you can and can not do. There's no reason to let an injury completely derail you from your muscle building, fat burning goals, unless it's absolutely necessary.

You may not make much progress when training around an injury. However, you won't slip back like you would if you stopped training all together. By continuing to do what you can do, you keep yourself accustomed to working out. We all know how difficult it is to get going after a layoff. Keep training as part of your routine.

You Deserve Success,
