The Frozen Shoulder... a thread.
A frozen shoulder is one of the most misunderstood conditions in orthopedics. It is not purely a mechanical problem. It is a metabolic one. The shoulder capsule becomes a target of systemic inflammation, hormonal disruption, and glycemic dysfunction. Most people, and some surgeons, still treat it as if something is stuck and just needs to be loosened... Properly managing this and the contributors is essential to resolving it.
Please stop telling people with osteoporosis not to lift anything heavy... I've heard it from docs, PTs, Trainers, etc... This might seem protective... but it's not.
This risk calculation... A hip fracture in an older adult carries a one-year mortality rate of roughly 25 percent. Half of those who survive never walk independently again. That is the cost of fragility.
The risk of a well-supervised, progressively loaded heavy (80-85% 1RM) strength program (LIFTMOR) is a muscle strain or a bruise. These are not equivalent risks, and treating them as equivalent, as avoidance does, is not caution. It is a decision to accept the larger risk in order to avoid the smaller one.
Joachim Trier, Danish-Norwegian filmmaker, who won an Oscar,
"The world is at a moment where we are getting more information ever about the wrongdoings made towards children, with several wars going on at the moment"
"I have two small kids, and to be personal for a moment"
"Me and most of the people around me have been crying a lot, weekly, daily, feeling incapable of doing stuff"
"Because we're seeing Palestinian children suffer"
"We're seeing people in Ukraine suffer"
"People in Sudan suffer"
"There doesn't seem to be any accountability at the moment"
"I can mention many other conflicts"
"Any child that dies at war is a responsibility for all adults that elect politicians"
"Dictatorships. We're in a time of strong men. What happened during the Holocaust during WWII"
"My grandfather was a resistance fighter during the war"
"When you're young, you think these things are far away in time, but actually, they happened quite recently and it happens again and again"
"As an artist, I'm not a politician, but I do believe that we need to be more collaborative about how we protect children in conflict situations and in society in general"
