I'd check out AthleanX Zero. Jeff was a physical therapist for an MLB team, and he really knows his stuff. His programs are the only ones I've tried that specifically trains things like rotator cuffs and such.

I only did one round of Zero before my decade overdue shoulder surgery, and it was more intense than the ones using weights.

His bodyweight only A/B is BRUTAL. Like in a get great results but you also feel like you're going to die way.

I've been watching a number of his videos lately and it's amazing how much info I've been learning. I'm definitely going to be making some changes to my workouts.

He lifts fake weights, sort of ingenious and misleading to people https://youtu.be/VDWoHOaupcc?si=hqbTef6JkVXor_HT

I don't think that using fake weights to demonstrate proper form for a video is exactly misleading.
