A member asked:
Is it safe to workout lower body at gym while a shoulder/trap muscle injury is healing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Trapezius: The key in avoiding aggravation of trapezius muscle injuries is to avoid activities that tighten this muscle. I'm not sure you can perform lower body workouts without tightening the trapezius muscle which brings down the shoulder blade.
