Does anyone know how to perform Joplin rows? If so, can you please share how? Are they rows where you stand as if going through a doorway, place your feet against the bottom of the door jamb, hold onto the doorway trim with your hand, lean way, and then pull yourself toward the jam?
Thanks

Vegetus that's the basic concept. I don't know how to put pictures up but I sent some pictures to Bruce, hopefully he'll put them up for You. Always liked the feel of these.

Vegetus, the second picture with both feet on the ground is a variation of the Joplin Row that You create Your own tension. The first picture is what Mike did. He preferred higher reps. Also, from my own self-experience, You can hit different muscles depending on the angle of the elbow when You pull.

Thank you both for the pics and the replies. The first pic is what I thought they were. I like the second version too.

What was the cause of death for Mike Joplin? He died in November 2017.

Moxohol rows work the back of the shoulder so Yeah it may help. A row, in my opinion, will balance out the shoulder. I know most disagree that changing the angle will cause different muscles to work. Depending on the angle of the elbow in relationship with the way You pull You can feel it in the more in the bicep, back, rear delt, or all three. Of course, all rows work all of them but You can emphasize each more depending on how You pull, if that makes sense.

Good full ROM exercises are needed as a finisher. I'm doing PNF stretching for all planes of motion to rid myself of the tendonitis & finish off with a calisthenic exercise. I can't even take off a sports shirt off properly because it it hurts so BAD. My wife pulls my shirt tail over my head to help take them off.

Moxohol I did email with Mike a lot but can't find the emails for some reason. Was a very nice guy and I always enjoyed what we talked about.
Have You gone to a doctor to find out what's wrong with Your shoulder? Did you say tendonitis, is that in Your shoulder? I think I remember You saying in the past that You don't like therapists? I know You like studies and all that stuff. But have You ever just tried something different on Your own without a study? Sometimes full ROM may not be the thing for certain people and their body parts. Kind of like myself with isometrics. I had surgery on a five-degree separated shoulder. Bands worked really well for me.

Saint Michael: U are absolutely right in terms of seeking medical expertise. Something analogous to anyone representing themselves in a courtroom has a fool for a client. Trust me when I say the doctors here aren't worth spit & I wouldn't put much stock in their diagnosis. The people nearly killed me with their collective subpar skillsets. I have a competent doctor in mind who'll gladly examine me when he blows into town soon. I can't use analgesics or painkillers as both items inhibit healing. So in the meantime, I'll just have to suck it up but I'm not going to suck on my thumb either. I've locked on to a few procedures besides isometrics that give my shoulders relief now. It was long duration isometrics performed at 50% effort that wrecked my shoulders anyways.

I was sayibg I find your comments on pain killers interesting and I think iy was Laird Hamilton, legendary surfer, who said something similar. I think he believes the pain is part of the healing mechanism, a required stimulus. I think it was during his Joe Rogan interview, but if not, lots of good stuff here from a super fut, innovative guy
