In this episode of Over 40 Fitness Hacks, host Brad Williams shares his recent experience with a SLAP tear, a shoulder injury he sustained while performing a seemingly simple exercise. Brad discusses the inevitability of injuries and the importance of focusing on rehabilitation and recovery to get back to the gym. After receiving an MRI, he was diagnosed with a level one SLAP tear and consulted with his physical therapist to outline a new fitness plan.
Brad explains how he's adapted his workout routine to focus primarily on leg exercises while incorporating new physical therapy movements for his shoulder. Despite the limitations, he remains optimistic about regaining his upper body strength once healed. He emphasizes the importance of adjusting calorie intake based on activity levels, using his Whoop device to monitor daily calorie burn and ensure he stays on track with his goals.
Throughout the episode, Brad encourages listeners to seek advice from various health professionals and emphasizes the necessity of staying active, even when dealing with injuries. He concludes by inviting listeners to join his Facebook group and take advantage of a free 15-minute consultation to discuss their fitness goals.
