The great thing about the TGU is it works a lot of major muscle groups and joints in one exercise so its hard to substitute another similar exercise and get the same benefits. I do work with an athlete who has a problematic shoulder and he does the TGUs with a sand bag on the shoulder eliminating the need to hold weight overhead then does another movement to work on shoulder strength and stability. (i.e. seated military press, TRX IYT etc)

Have a bum left shoulder, can’t really hold dead weight as prescribed for a Turkish getup and do it properly… any thoughts on similar exercises that some need overhead weight?
