Popeye muscle can you workout with it

Thanks for the reply
I actually tore both tendons away from the bone
The surgery reattached tendons but the muscle ruptured and became a Popeye muscle
I can’t pick up a carton of milk off the kitchen counter and return it to refrigerator
If I try to exercise my left arm the muscle locks up
Similar to a Charlie-horse in the leg
I’m afraid to do curls or push-ups don’t want to make arm worse
Should I try or leave well enough alone?
Thanks again for the reply

Jim, your symptoms sound real familiar. I thought about having mine reattached but after reconsidering my age I decided there were some things I just wouldn't do anymore and I would do what I could. While it is aggravating not to be able to do what you have always done I guess I have to live with what I've got left. It seems to be working out. Good luck to you.
