RE: Traumatizing The Rotator Cuff

[Guest guest]

January 30, 1996, I had my acromioclavicular (A/C) removed, actually the

end of my collar bone because of impingement, (it had been shattered in an

airplane wreck - long story).

To make a long story short, My doctor did not forbid me from doing the bench

press, but discouraged me from doing upright rows from that point on.

Listed as a training alert from the web site below especially timely in

light of the recent conversations about bench pressing and upright rows.

Some " biomechanical " analysis is cited.
