looks like @kagami @burrrrrberry @6bazinga and @tracyit so far. should have a hyper mobile livestream where everyone does tricks and the winner challenges burr heads up to see who can bend the farthest.

Please no. Had a physical therapy last year (frozen shoulder, don't ask). The guy working with me told me too many horror stories about hyper mobile people. Basically, it's all fun and games until it isn't. If people pop out their joints every now and then (cause it's fun), it tends to fall out by itself soon enough. After the 8th/9th time (therapists words not mine), surgery is in order. Ligaments/tendon reductions and "folding" (and subsequent "firming up" of that folding) is not fun. Or painless.

there is no room for reason in hyper mobility.

Again, it may seem fun. But it isn't. Don't do this @burrrrrberry but also, I'm not gonna tell anyone how to live their life 😄

passive resistance exercises were the key. I've had it on both shoulders, but the "cacoon" on the right one was "tighter". My mobility was so messed up, I could not do the external rotation AT ALL. I could not raise my arm more than shoulder height. I could not throw a ball, I would break down in tears (remember, 40sth year old man, trying to act tough) if I did so accidentally (small kids and whatnot). I would wake up daily, from pain, 10 times per night, for a better part of the year. It messes you up, physically and mentally. It's basically torture. so I've had extensive physical therapy (3 times, each time 3 weeks, 5 times per weeks, 1.5 hrs daily), with a dedicated therapist "breaking" it up, in every single direction, increasing the pain threshold by 2-3% daily. I know all the muscles of the rotator cuff, just bcs of it. I could go on about it, but it hurts me to think about that time. TLDR: don't mess with your joints. Frozen shoulders hurt like a mfer. The recovery is usually around 2 years.
