My ortho says that all that's left of my shoulder problems is a little biceps tendonitis. So, I am to keep up the stretching and rc strengthening. I get to add some overhead stabilization lifts. I'm thinking of DB Figure Eights, Overhead Shrugs, Overhead Squats (yeah right), and maybe some lighter DB Snatches. No real pressing yet.

Dumping the bar would suck too.
I'm lucky I have good spotters now though.
I can't think of a reason why anyone would want to dump the bar! Although hey, shit happens!(although that shouldn't happen too often)

Dumping on the front squats was just dropping it because it felt like it was slipping off my delts and I wanted that last rep. Didn't get it, but I wanted to try.
On the back squat, I knew I wasn't coming back up, so I just lower it down to the pins.
I'm glad I dumped it because I was self-conscious about it happening and everyone looking and staring. Because of this, I might have been holding back and extra 10lbs that I could have been squatting. Now, I push closer to the edge.
I don't want
anyone at my gym to spot me on squats. Zero confidence.
