Shoulder impingement syndrome

My last training took place on Sunday, March 18th. Physical therapy begins Wednesday, April 4th. Hope to resume training in 6 weeks : Tuesday, May 1st.

This was a recurring condition that, although was allowed to fully recover last year, was not correctly rehabilitated. Cross training boxing exacerbated the impingement in both shoulders to the point where i had to suspend Muay Thai entirely. The impingement syndrome gradually worsened during the course of Judo and jiu jitsu classes. If my rehabilitation is successful, ideally i will begin training grappling and striking collectively again.
