Two items I found very interesting:
"4. Periodization and periodization style don’t seem to affect hypertrophy, at least in the literature we currently have. This is...
That's how I feel, but I'm wondering if I'm leaving gains on the floor. FYI - I do a "push / off / pull / legs / off" routine over 5 days, then repeat (day of the week doesn't matter)
Hello all - what are your thoughts on periodization? Periodization defined here is planned periods (mesocycles) to vary variables; for example 3 weeks low volume, 3 weeks medium volume, 3 weeks...
If you're concerned about rupturing a blood vessel or anything requiring a doctor's attention, please see a doc.

I do mostly Dumbbell Bent-Over Reverse Fly or reverse pec dec. Face pulls and upright rows cause me pain (I had extensive rotator cuff surgery on both shoulders).
Unless you're a doctor, you're not expected to interpret an MRI. What did the doctor say? Does he recommend surgery? If so, get it over with, and get back to feeling good again, and doing the things...
My only advice at this point is follow EXACTLY what the surgeon and Physical Therapist says. As you know, bicep tenodesis was included in both of my shoulder surgeries. It's a long, tedious recovery...
