Ask your P-T about scapular stabilization. Just as important as rotator cuff strength.

Yeah, the 2009 was my first attempt at this, but it didn't stick. I'm loving it now and look forward to getting in the water. I'll reach out to the physical therapist that I did my most recent rehab with. She was really good and all about getting back to normal activities. Thanks for the advice. I'll try not to be a stranger on the message board here. Thanks again.

I had a shoulder fixed about 10 years ago and my doc said that rotator cuff exercises are for life now so I do them a few times per week to keep the small muscles strong. You can google them or ask your PT for some. Also if you feel pain, stop. Let it heal so you don’t screw it up for good

Your first post in 10 years!! After three surgeries I think I'd be talking to either a sports-minded orthopaedist or physical therapist about any stretching or strength building. Getting your stroke looked at by a good coach sounds like a good idea.
