Rotator cuff hurts, should i work out or not?

Rotator cuff pain: The mainstay of treatment is exercise. Focus in strengthening the muscles that attach your shoulder blade to your body to take the pressure off a sore or injured rotator cuff.

When you work : Out avoid overhead exercises and exercises that keep your arm internally rotated and abducted ie the painful arc of impingement. Keep your weight and resistance lower than usual. Exercises for internal and external roaring with very very light weights to strengthen the unaffected parts of the rot cuff and stabilize the shoulder will help ask a trainer or therapist to guide you.

Yes: But you should see a therapist or trainer to get you on a rotator cuff and periscapular strengthening program. Remember that these exercises should be high repetition and low weight! thank you.
