Physical Therapy weapons

In Physical Therapy we’ve moved to strengthening exercises, which is good because it means that my shoulder is stablizing but it is kicking my hiney. Mostly we’re doing theraband exercises and weights but today I was introduced to the Bodyblade.

It looks like some bizarre martial arts weapon suited to ninjas. To use it, you have to shake it back and forth so that the ends wiggle. Apparently this requires a stable shoulder. I felt so inept while I was trying to get this thing to go. But if I keep working, then maybe someday I’ll get to be a ninja.
