Shoulder Dislocation - 08/22/05 02:51 PM
Does anybody know any exercises to strengthen a shoulder that was previously dislocated? I took Judo for a year in 2001, and switched arts due to my injury.
(I was going in for a throw and my opponent, a former wrestler, simply yanked hard on my arm in an awkward angle. My arm came out of the socket, I fell and hit the ground, thankfully popping it back into place). Being young and foolish, I let time heal it rather than exercises.
I'm moving back to Edmonton soon, and as I'm unaware of any good BJJ clubs there (which I am more interested in) I may go back to that Judo club. However, the shoulder does bother me sometimes, and I am uncertain if I going back would be a wise decision.
