if you're sedentary actuary who doesn't exercise then um you'll never have a problem because you're just not repetitively loading it enough to wear down or cause a tear
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
you should have been orthopedic surgeon so you can have a type one one a type two or a type three of chromian type one is totally flat that's the majority of people type two the second most common and type three is about I I don't remember the exact numbers but certainly it's not rare like 30% of people and that's the one that really predisposed you if but only if you're an overhead athlete or lifting weights overhead or doing all sorts of you know aggressive things if you're sedentary actuary who doesn't exercise then um you'll never have a problem because you're just not repetitively loading it enough to wear down or cause a tear
you'll often hear people talk about um you know well I can do so and so and I've never had an issue therefore it's okay right so if you're if you have the top AC chromian there you can probably get away with a lot more overhead activity and you might look at somebody who's in category three who every time they do excessive overhead ity gets injured and you might be saying well there's something wrong with you the reality of it is it would be interesting if we sort of knew these things in advance and we could maybe modify and temper our activity around our genetics effectively
