@ltsally Thanks for your response, I expected that your shoulder might need a lot of work to keep up with your game. For the rest of your life sounds like a sentence of some kind. I do Yoga every morning and try to walk a mile or two a day along the great Mississippi River. We are putting in a special bridge this spring so we can take the side by side down to the river's edge from our own yard. I am a lot older than you, however. Very proud of you......keep it up. You set a good example.

Would you mind sharing some of your exercises? I am sure others would like to know what worked for you.

May you protected from inner and outer harm.
Chris

Here is the list of exercises each day. You can google them and probably see videos of how to do them. Hope this is helpful.
