@shoulder.comeback: 💥 1 Test to Diagnose Rotator Cuff Tear and Fix It! 💥 Not sure if your shoulder pain is from a rotator cuff tear? This simple test can give you the answer—fast 👇 🔎 The Gerber Lift-Off Test Place the back of your hand on your lower back and try to lift it away. → Can’t do it or feel sharp pain? The subscapularis (a key cuff muscle) is likely compromised. Now here’s the key: ❌ Don’t rest it. ❌ Don’t ice it. ❌ Don’t stretch it. None of that builds the strength or stability you need to truly fix it. 🛠️ Do this instead: 🔧 Banded Extension – Fires up the posterior cuff + builds scap control 🏋️‍♂️ Incline Row + ER + Press – Combines pull, rotation, and press for full-range shoulder function 💥 Banded Knee Internal Rotation – Builds chain control + activates the front cuff 🎯 Banded Perturbations @ 90° – Challenges dynamic cuff stability where you’re weakest 🎯 These movements don’t just reduce pain—they rebuild the shoulder so it stays pain-free. 👉 DM the word “pain” and I'll send you a free shoulder pain fix demo with my team! #rotatorcufftear #rotatorcuff #shoulderpain #fixshoulderpain #comebackperformance #shoulderrehab #subscapularis #shoulderstrength #scapularcontrol #shouldermobility
