Prone crossed-arm stretch
Shoulder-mobility (range-development)
•
2m 38s
THE WHAT:
A simple & accessible form for loaded stretching of the posterior shoulder & scapular musculature. It is particularly valuable to practice in combination with efforts to develop 'neural-drive' (i.e. ability to intrinsically move) in the scapular musculature with the likes of scapular rotations, active-hanging/arch variations, and isometrically-held 'ring-row' contexts.

Shoulder-flexion & extension stretches
THE WHAT & HOW:
Two simple bodyweight stretching contexts for both diagnosing & spending time in the end-ranges of shoulder extension & flexion. Their low intensity means that they can be practiced as frequently as desired (up to multiple times, daily), however this also means that, rather than d... -
Anterior-shoulder chest & RC stretches
THE WHAT:
Simple stretching variations for regular use toward mitigating & reversing kyphotic posture. Whether through lifestyle or practice habits, 'kyphosis' is characterised by excessive hypertonicity in the anterior musculature of the upper-body, translating to general "tightness" in both 'pr... -
Yuri's shoulder mobility-drill
THE WHAT:
A simple "bang for buck" prehabilitation & mobility-development drill originally sourced from performer, hand-balancer & teacher Yuri Marmerstein. The band-resisted movement dynamically explores the ranges of both internal & external shoulder-rotation (IR/ER), notably in positions betwe...
