Sounds kinda corny but I found it helpful then . In your case you could start by mounting the gun while seated . Maybe 20-50 times until tired , then perhaps mounting and swinging while seated . As your strength comes back then go to standing and doing the same thing . I realize mentally imagining a round of sporting would be a little difficult as I at the time imagines skeet birds and trap birds . Even if you went through the motions visualizing skeet birds I don’t see where it wouldn’t be helpful . Worst case you should be able to build muscle memory and strength . Hope this is helpful .

You echo the advice two others have given. Sounds like a plan.
