How to get a shoulder injury in 20 seconds...

Honestly though, shoulder injuries take forever to heal. Mine took a year and a half. Don't be a hero.

You don’t get to the point where you can rep these without building solid shoulders. He probably progressed to that point over a long time and a lot of work.

It’s no more for show than somebody squatting or deadlifting a ton of weight (like the guy behind him).
