It has been over 7 months since I hurt my left rotator cuff sparring with my 6'2, 230-pound Australian boxing mate. It happened after he blocked a left hook I threw to the body with his elbow and forearm. The violent impact rendered my shoulder useless. The pain was equivalent to getting shot in the arm at close range.It was 5 months before I could lift a dumbbell heavier than 35lbs. Even raising my arm to put a shirt on my back was hell.
Today, I faced him in the ring, and my shoulder held par. I felt like a Spartan reborn_hooray!
