How do I fix my rotator cuff injury?

[rohitbiruli008]

Guys, I injured my rotator cuff while benching in a powerlifting meet. It's been 3 weeks. I do deadlift and squats but ib cannot do exercises like bench press and shoulder. How do I fix it soon?

There is no fixing it soon. You’re looking more at 6-8 weeks.

Look up rotator cup physical therapy exercises on YouTube. Rotator cuff exercises are nothing like lifting other weights. You’re going to be going very very light. Like 3-5lbs dumbbell, and you go for high reps in the 12-15 range. Focus on very very strict form. You’ll feel weird, lifting a 3 lbs dumbbell, but this is what you do for rotator cuff work.

Once the dumbbells feel easy and your shoulder isn’t hurting, try using rubber resistance bands. Again, light weight and high reps.
