If I do military presses there is a weakness on the inside of my shoulder, and it can't keep quite up with my right shoulder. On a set I should get to 10 reps on, my left will only get to maybe 8.
Is there anyway this will heal with time, and is there anything I can do to help it? My left lat is also visibly atrophied, although I can now do more pull ups than before the injury.
Thanks
