There are definitely exercises that you can continue to do so that you don’t lose the muscle strength and tone you’ve gained. In general, the safest exercises to do while the rotator cuff area is still healing are ones in which the shoulder joint is stable, such as the biceps curl. Because the rotator cuff injury can be a nagging one, the best plan would be to meet with a physical therapist to design an individualized program that will help you recover from the injury while maintaining as much strength in other upper body muscles as possible.
