A Shoulder Breakthrough?

Not really sure if I'd call it a breakthrough as such, but it definately puts me on the right road.

Today at the gym I did 15 shoulder presses on a weights machine. I managed 10 @ 1kg, then 5 @ 2kg before my shoulder felt bad.

Each rep I could feel the point at which it gave back in March, but I was concentrating on holding my shoulder into my armpit (probably not the best description) and it was ok.

My Physiotherapist said that half the battle when recovering from an injury is just having the courage to try things, today I had the courage to try a shoulder press and I've survived with shoulder intact to tell the tale.
