Shoulder is still a bother, but I thought I would experiment while I'm waiting to see the ortho specialist (he's in currently out of the country for a couple of weeks). Over the weekend, I started doing some "shoulder breaker" stretches with a 60-inch walking stick. I thought I could maybe gently force some external rotation for the upper arm to alleviate some of the pain I have to contend with when holding the squat bar in the low bar position. Funny thing is, it does seem to have been easier to get under the squat bar for the last two workout sessions -- I can almost get the left elbow back like it's supposed to be. The shoulder still pinches like hell when I bring the walking stick down from a press lock-out position, but I've still got a couple of weeks before somebody with medical training tells me I shouldn't be doing that.
