What happened to Ellie?!

Commencal Mucoff now on Rockshox....

Why putting the text over the pic??

@dualsuspensiondave: and you think that everything that is taught in PT school is evident based and the absolute truth. I‘ve been there let me tell you that… In real life much more people than you think have limited internal rotation and that causes lots of problems because of the resulting de-centration of the humeral head.

Fully agree with that. There is absolutely no evidence that lifting heavy or lifting „incorrect“ is correlated with back pain, etc. Take your time, use the variables (intensity, volume, amplitude,…in the right way, listen to your body und try to stay consistent.

@skiandmtbdirtbag: and why do you know that most of us don‘t have good external rotation? Is it just a claim? The point is there is so much superficial knowledge around even from Physios and Doctors (and i am a Physio). So many outdated claims without any evidence still linger around and that‘s a pain in the ass (for doctors and physios and for people who want to do the right things for themselves)

@skiandmtbdirtbag: impingement is such an overhauled term. Clinicians now tend to go away from that biomechanical point of view to a more functional view. I fully agree that most of us should focus on external rotation movements to counteract our daily postures, movements etc. But calling an exercise a „bad“ exercise can only come from someone who doesn‘t have a clue or from a clinician who‘s been living behind the moon the last few years. It‘s just a matter of the person doing the movement if it‘s the right time or the right dose of such a movement. There‘s a little more than just claiming „good exercise“, „bad exercise“, „the best exercise for…“, „the worst exercise,…“ and so on. And also it‘s not alway the way to go if you only think about the muscles when training. Structures like tendons, cartilage, labrum,…also react on putting the right amount of stress on them

@skiandmtbdirtbag: everything you do with your arm can create „impingement“ in your shoulder, but it must not necessary cause problems or pain. I think it‘s a great movement to create more capacity and strength in the shoulder and the surrounding structures. Everything is an act of balance and progressive load…

What‘s wrong with internal rotation?
