Full body workout after infraspinatus injury 23 January 2012 01:36 (permalink)
I am currently nearing the end of my rehab from my infraspinatus sprain. I will be doing a full body workout with no bench press or flys as they always give me shoulder pain.

I need to ensure I keep strengthening my shoulder muscles so they don't get injured again.

I will do either 2 days a week or 3 depending on shifts and current feel of muscle etc

I don't expect big weights for a while I just want to build up slowly and focus on technique and sensible gains,EGO is outside the gym now!

I also will train in martial arts several times a week with JKD/Kali, MMA, No Gi Jiu Jitsu, Boxing and Wrestling.

I want to compete this year so need to train smart and use it as the goal for motivation.

Now on to the workout:

Cardio 10 mins warmup either skipping or running.
DB bench press x 3 sets
Seated narrow grip row x 3 sets
Leg press x 3 sets
Calf raises x 3 sets
Cable machine standing Shoulder external rotation x 3 sets
Cable machine seated shoulder internal rotation x 3 sets
Bicep curl on cable machine x 3 sets
Tricep pull down on cable machine x 3 sets

I intend on doing this in 1 sitting so if I miss a day I don't miss anything out plus this will help with my endurance.

Again at any point I feel overstrained I will drop bicep and tricep exercises.

Let me know what you think before I start in about a weeks time. I am still rehabilitating the shoulder but nearly back to normal range of movement and strength.

Thanks John

    Shoulder is far better now, i went to a 4 hour seminar on Sunday for no gi jiu jitsu.  Had to tap early to stop injury but all went well!
     
    I have had another training session yesterday in my Jeet Kune Do/Kali class, this went well also. I didnt experience much shoulder pain when doing the stick work which is reassuring.
     
    I have started alternating between resistanced tubing & cable machine for external rotations for my shoulder which is improving its strength day by day.
     
    I nearly feel like i can do a proper workout however will get a personal trainer to show me the correct form as that could be part of the reason of the injury.
     
    Will update when i do a full body workout!
     
    Cheers John

      So far i have done 2 full body workouts starting this week.  I have started light on any upper body exercises to ensure the shoulder builds strength properly and doesn't go again.
       
      Monday:
      All exercises 10 reps unless stated
       
      5 minutes warmup on treadmill
      Squats - 1 set with bar only, 3 sets with 10kg on each side of Olympic bar.
      DB Incline bench - 10kg dumbells x 3 sets
      Lat Pulldown machine -  50kg x 3 sets
      Military press machine - 15kg x 3 sets
      bicep curl machine - 3 sets of 15kg
      15 minutes of HIT on treadmill.
       
      Tuesday:
      1.5hrs of Jeet Kune Do/Kali training.
       
      Thursday:
       
      All 11 reps apart from squats & db bench where i did 10 reps as more weight
       
      5 minutes warmup on treadmill
      Squats - 1 set with bar only, 3 sets with 10kg on each side of olympic bar.
      DB Incline bench - 12.5kg dumbells x 3 sets
      Lat Pulldown machine -  50kg x 3 sets
      Military press machine - 15kg x 3 sets
      bicep curl machine - 3 sets of 15kg
      Incline sit ups - 3 sets of 15
      20 minutes of HIT on treadmill.
       
      I will be adding more cardio on off days rather than when weight training or do the cardio in the morning and gym in evening.  I am just getting back up to speed and increasing my motivation to train!
       
      Thanks John

        Saturday:

        Thursday:
         
        All 12 reps 
         
        5 minutes warmup on treadmill at 8km/h for first minute then 9 km/h for next 4 mins.
        Squats - 3 sets with 13.75kg on each side of olympic bar.
        DB Incline bench - 12.5kg dumbells x 3 sets
        Lat Pulldown machine -  50kg x 3 sets

        10 minutes of increasing speed on treadmill. 1 minute 8km/h, 1 minute 9km/h, each minute going up 1 km/h until 14km/h for 1 minute then down to gentle jog at 8km/h.
         
        Had limited time today!
         
        Shoulder hurting slightly, will skip the press ups we do in JKD for now as i think that may contribute.  And time for another physio visit to check things out.
         
        Thanks John

            Right so another update!
             
            The shoulder pain has gone away now after following advice from the physio.  I may go and get a sports massage when i start my martial arts training 3-5 times a week due to the extra strain involved.
             
            Wednesday
             
            5 minutes warmup on treadmill at 8km/h. 
            Leg Press - 3 sets with 60 - 10 reps.
            DB Incline bench - 17.5kg Dumbells x 3 sets - 11 reps
            Lat Pulldown machine -  60kg x 3 sets - 11 reps
            Military press machine - 20kg x 3 sets - 11 reps
            bicep curl machine - 3 sets of 20kg - 11 reps
            Incline sit ups - 3 sets of 15
            I am now confident that i can start pushing harder on the weights and stop lifting stupidly light weights. 
            Saturday
             
            JKD - 1.5 hours training and done my Grey T-Shirt grading.  Burnt some calories but not much.

            Will update monday after a heavier workout.
             
            Thanks John

                Saturday
                 
                5 minutes warmup on treadmill 1 minute at 8km/h and 4 minutes at 9km/h
                Squats 15kg - 12 reps.
                DB Incline bench - 20kg Dumbells x 3 sets - 12 reps
                Lat Pulldown machine -  70kg x 3 sets - 12 reps
                Military press machine - 30kg x 3 sets - 12 reps
                bicep curl machine - 3 sets of 25kg - 12 reps
                Incline sit ups with turn at top alternating left & right - 3 sets of 15
                 
                I have measured myself in January and again today and i can honestly say i am dissapointed.  I have lost an inch from my waist which is good but lost 2 inches from my chest and all others have stayed the same.
                 
                I can see my body composition has changed but it isn't really measurable.
                 
                I DO want to gain size whilst doing this, do you think i am training to infrequently or do i need to add more exercises?  I was thinking of adding narrow grip press on smith machine for tricep and changing the bicep curl to either a bar or dumbells.  I will probably up to 4 sets too.
                 
                Am i expecting too much too soon?
                 
                Thanks for any replies!!
