Hi, thought maybe someone could give me a little advice..i have been searching for a sling or other type of brace that will hold my arm secure enough to run. i had my surgery 5 weeks ago and although i can spin, ride bike on trainer, swim and use cardio machines, i would love to run. i bought a shoulder stabalizer called the sully brace and while it does hold my shoulder (abit uncomfortably however) my lower arm just flops. The sully will be great once i get some flexion back, but until then.....i have not run since before my accident and i am itching for a nice long run....i have to be race ready in 6 months! any ideas?

you need something that holds your arm to your body and keeps the lower arm flexed I'm guessing.
