    Im 46.. small tear, hurts like balls, Im trying to continue to work around it, it sucks, will get the surgery when i cant take it anymore, I see no reason why you wont be able to work out once its healed !

    No rest for the tan and jerked !

    I haven't, but my brother just had surgery on his rotor cuff. He is almost fully recovered now, and back to 100%. It worked great for him.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I am just nervous about it. But I can't work out now anyway until something is fixed.
