Top factor in successful recovery:
1. A GOOD SURGEON. Dr. Regan from Vancouver BC is one of the best in the world for shoulder's.
This rehab program may require additional costs for optimal results, but it covers all aspects of shoulder injury.
Post surgery, I plan to spend approximately 10 sessions in a Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber. This greatly increases speed of initial recovery to damaged muscle/tendons ligaments and cartilage.
Rehabilitation always begins with physiotherapy. Don't move forward in any activities until ok'd by your physio/doctor.
hot/cold treatment, and basic movements in the pool (not swimming, but more just resistance movements) can be relatively accessable to most people.
although quite challenging, Bikrams Yoga has amazing benefits for all joints, as well as the overall recovery process and physical health.
Specific changes in diet can be important, especially the seldom-known benefits of pineapple. Pineapple is the only source of the anti-inflammatory enzyme bromelain. Research has linked bromelain with significant reduction in shoulder pain.
Bromelain is an enzyme found only in pineapple that researchers believe may reduce inflammation, swelling and acts as a “clean up agent,” digesting dead cells to help injuries heal more smoothly.
Supplemental therapies, like BIOPTRON lamp treatment and Biomagnetic therapy, should be considered concurrently during physio.
A new recovery and regeneration technique worth checking out is Microstretching.
To top this, once the shoulder begins to feel strong and stable, range of motion almost fully recovered, there are certain substances that can really boost recovery. My combination would be:
Deca-durabolin
IGF-1
HGH
annnnd ofcourse testosterone, to make up for the suppression by deca.
Basis of Deca-Durabolin:
"I’ve read many places that Deca stores water in connective tissue, thus alleviating joint pain. I have no idea what “storing water in the joints” means. I have no idea how to really quantify that statement, or where it started. However, in one study of postmenapusal women, Deca impoved collagen synthesis(1), and in another study deca increased bone mineral content. (2)Both of these studies used VERY low doses, which were far too low to promote muscle growth. In my estimation, based on these 2 studies, an athlete attempting to use Deca only for these two effects (increasing bone mineral content and collagen synthesis) should be using 100mgs of deca every week."
Basis of IGF-1:
Of special interest to both athletes and bodybuilders who are rehabbing an injury is that IGF is vital to the proper production of connective tissue, and exogenous IGF administration may improve collagen formation and aid in the repair of cartilage. (19)(18). IGF is also vital to proper bone density and bone density regulation (20).
IGF administration may be highly useful for rehabilitation of any kind of joint injury experienced by athletes and bodybuilders, and would greatly decrease recovery time as well as increase the strength of the recovered area.
Basis of HGH:
Growth hormone also has the ability to stimulate the production (or reproduction, in the case of an injury) of cartilage. This, however, requires the presence of a mediator substance, Somatomedin (IGF), which is released from the liver in response to GH…and the IGF, in turn, actually promotes the growth of cartilage.
I am going to combine Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery with a rehabilitation program consisting of Physical Therapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber, Bio-magnetic Therapy, Bioptron Lamp therapy, Hot/Cold treatment, Physio in the pool, large intake of Pineapple, Microstretching, Bikrams Yoga, and eventually HGH, IGF-1, Deca+test supplementation to build the strongest shoulder joint humanely possible. All in a slow, precise, unrushed manner.
If this fails, I give up on my shoulder.
