    I'm relatively new to archery. Jumped straight into a 45 #recurve bow. My draw arm can go all day with it, but my bow arm elbow and shoulder hurt super bad after 20 shots or so. Causes me to take a break for a week before I can go again. So I got a wimp bow at 25 pounds to build muscle memory to but it's way to weak it feels, no strain at all. I do work out but honestly when I go back to the heavier bow the pain comes right back... guess I need to get one somewhere in the middle at 35# or so. It's really discouraging when most ppl I know shoot 80# bows with no problem at all.

    Thanks so much for this Christian. I visited your website. Wow this resonates with me, as I am a rehab specialist myself. Been shooting from 2018 but with many AC joint and rotator cuff issues due to initial wrong biomechanic stabilizing at full draw. Would like to do the 6 weeks program. Just need to save up due to the exchange rate. Keep up your solid good work.

    Great video-I have actually experienced severe pain in my bow arm shoulder, so much that I had to quit shooting for almost a year. My shoulder finally healed, but I still limit my shooting to prevent recurrence. Have you addressed bow arm shoulder injury in another video?

    Hi Archery Strong ..... are these exercises good for bowing of a cello?. I had rotator cuff surgery post a fall and dislocation of my right shoulder in Jan 2024. I just finished 6 months of Physical Therapy and I need to be able to play my cello again. My right arm muscles are weak on the that side and I want to get them stronger. I'm right handed and this is the arm I use to bow the cello with. Thank you for your time.

    Thanks again, Christian! I happen to it started doing hangs again just last week and hadn’t noticed your video until today. The level one hangs for me, as you well know, my limited range of motion, are great! Every morning, before shooting, and then often in the evenings, when I remember. Very cool!

    What do you do when your biceps tendon is inflamed when drawing in your bow shoulder? Then never goes away. Only thing that helps is a cortisone shot but then it comes back after shooting. Going to give up archery most likely unless i can figure it out because its getting in the way of my surfing now : (

    How do face with Target Panic??

  • @Bogenschuetze
    @Bogenschuetze 6 місяців тому

    A good exercise, but in this position you are strengthening the bowarm in the wrong vertical direction. The vertical stabilization happens always by adding tension to your backside, because you are pulling and pushing outside. The strength must be build when we think of a standing positition to the directions up, back and towards the target. Your training position has benefits for the directions up, front and towards the target. So we need another exercise for pushing to the backside of our body.
