My shoulder is getting better. I didn't go back to see the PT like I was told. I'm too cheap. But I have really worked on my exercises and have definitely increased my ROM. In fact, I feel pretty normal. I still try not to use my right arm for much, but even as I sit here and type with two hands, my arm is elevated and it feels fine. This may sound silly, but it's awesome.
In about a week I get to start strength training. I will even try putting some weight on my right arm in spin class. Doing one class one-handed is tough. During this week of doubles, my left elbow was really sore about half way through the second class.
I was able to keep up the long workouts all week. Friday, I only did 75 minutes. I plan to do doubles again on Monday. So four days a week I will work out for 2-3 hours per day and three days a week, I will work out for 1-1.5 hours per day. At least that's my goal. When I add in strength training I guess my cardio time will decrease. We'll see.
So far all these extra hours at the gym have made me feel great. So I only look forward to doing more.
