I saw you said you had some shoulder issues, I was a pitcher through college and shoulder ***** is drilled into your skull. You mentioned PT exercises with resistance bands, you can use those or very light dumbells like the little pink ones make sure you keep up doing those internal/external rotations (obviously lying on a bench if you have to use little dumbs). If they gave you others like 'unsheathing the sword' do 'em all it all seems dumb but they're awesome I still do them and I'm healthy as can be.
They probably told you to do nothing overhead, so that rules out alot of exercises. But you don't have to have a complex workout routine that half the exercises are foreign to the average joe. Dumbing it down to military/LE style workouts works out pretty well too. Like some people had said prior, master your body weight; i.e. pushups, pullups, run, etc. You'll build strength, lean up, and stay pretty athletic and agile with crossfit type stuff if you can manage that. That stuff is fun and usually gives you workouts based on your body weight, fun to do and you're soaked in 20 minutes...if you can do it that fast haha.
BMXrider mentioned rowing, that is killer I like that suggestion!
Also, obviously anytime you use dumbs in the place of a barbell the stabilization now becomes your shoulders task rather than a solid bar. Keep that in mind, but be careful with it, good luck!

I will certainly try this as well. Thank you!
