Peter Attia experienced significant shoulder pain, diagnosed as frozen shoulder, which limited his range of motion and was unresponsive to conventional treatment.

“I remember this was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life I just wanted to quit so badly I was like look there's no shame no one will even know did it's a strong current you got pushed out your shoulder got dislocated like just get it over with now”

“I didn't perform there I wanted to going in and then I was just like it's one of these things like I'm starting to blame everything oh this guy kicks my shoulder now I'm dislocated”

“i was gonna gonna play catch with my son and i couldn't do it because my shoulder hurts so much in my right shoulder and i thought i must have a rotator cuff tear i went in to see the specialist finally got diagnosed uh uh with a frozen shoulder which is inflammation of the shoulder capsule which happens to people as they some people as they get older extremely painful completely limited my range of motion”

“I was kind of all the way around but big anterior uh inferior right so I don't know what your first injury was I mean maybe so we've you've talked about this I believe it was a subluxation in boxing when I was probably 17. um it's so there's two injuries I remember having in high school I can't remember which one was first you might have a sense one was doing absurdly heavy military press okay I think that was the second one truthfully I think the first subluxation was boxing yeah and just bad timing Hard Punch Throne guy gets out of the way probably smacked my arm on the way and out it came and I believe that would have been followed up six months later I'm doing very heavy weight for me overhead and I just remember boom it just popped out and down yeah and then from that point on it was a vicious cycle of never-ending subluxations with each couple of years having a really bad one another really bad one”

“Another really bad one I had was in a open water swim race I was you know we're swimming Freestyle right so I'm in the reach phase with right arm in front and the swimmer in front of me kicked down on that arm which is not I mean that's a bit of force but not absurd just the down kick of that arm took me out yeah”
