My singular concession to being over 60: I have taken extraordinarily good care of my body and could work out every other day. After I turned 60, though, my body rebelled. I now need two days rest between workouts. Workout day 1, DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) day 2, rest day 3. When I'd push and try and force every other day (because "I'd always done it that way"), bad things would result, the worst being a completely torn rotator cuff.


When you say "completely torn" do you mean all 4 tendons in your rotator cuff were torn?

I'm on week 8 of recovery from rotator cuff repair surgery. I had 2 tendons with full thickness, retracted tears, a third tendon with a partial tear, and tears in my labrum. The pain has not been too bad, but the healing process is long. Much longer than I want to deal with.

Best wishes... I've had more than two rotator repairs.....i empathize with ya. Hang in there there is light at the end of the tunnel....
