A member asked:
I strained my rotator cuff bench pressing a couple days ago. i was scheduled to do a military press, can i keep going?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: The military press action requires the rotator cuff to contract and hold the contraction throughout the entire cycle. A strained rotator cuff will typically stop functioning normally and become inhibited as a way to protect itself. The stress form military press would likely damage it further.
