I am a professional baseball pitcher just coming off shoulder surgery (Bankaert Repair) I have started Physical therapy but will not start any strenghthing ex. until tendons have fully healed to bone. Wont be able to lift heavy until about three months out. Now Iam just limited to bi's, tri's,forearms maximum 10lbs. and some light resistance rows w/ thera-band along w/ rotator cuff ex. Wondered if "DECA" would help or actually hurt me? The doctor says my tendons need to heal for the next six weeks w/out much strenghthing because I dont want to tear the tendons away from the bone again. IP: Logged |

Being in Orthopedics, I can tell you that Deca will definately help strengthen the tendon, but will not speed up the attachment time to the bone. Just work harder than ever at what you are doing. Do one more set than you're supposed to. Unless pain will not allow it. You want to strengthen it, not tear it again. Good Luck. ------------------ IP: Logged |

First off i had the same sugury and it took me alomst three years to recover completely, now the one i had operated on is better than the other one. I would take deca, just as i did, but not until the tendon is fully reattatched. Then take 300-400mg deca a week for 8 weeks, it will do wonders for your shoulder. E2 IP: Logged |

To E2: Wondered if you thought there might be another stack that would benefit me better in terms of 15lbs. of lean muscle mass and getting ripped to the bone and increasing the velocity on my fastball. IP: Logged |

I'll tell you first before anything else make sure you're shoulder is %100, take the deca when your tendon is fully reattatched. if you reinjure your shoulder it'd pretty much done for, i mean that's the end of you career. After the bankar repair any more serious trauma and your shoulder will never really recover. Take it easy , do as i said about the deca, then email me and we'll talk more about it then
