Master Shoulder Mobility - 4 Simple Exercises

No amount of stretching is going to help you overcome stiff shoulders and upper back if you have weak muscles and poor execution!

Trevor walks us through some exercises that aren't just for stretching, but for conscious mobility to get the most out of your stretching. You can stretch all day long and it won't be effective if not executed the right way. We're going to move our bodies while also getting length and openness. Trevor displays each exercise so that you can see how the body reacts to each move and why.

One of the best videos about anything I have ever seen on Youtube. Just what I needed for my stiff shoulders. Great job man!

[JakeBarlow]

this is the first of so many videos I've seen that have actually mentioned protracting before going overhead. thank you!

This is extremely helpful. I'm starting to do this with my dislocated shoulder and finding significant improvements. The only thing that would have helped extra, is to have a visual example of a beginner attempting these moves while you're coaching them.

Great shoulder stretches there. I also include a bridge against a wall shoulder stretch

@ Strength Side: Thanks, I appreciated the tips, as well as the giggle from the catchy phrase "scaredy-cat" used during the Pec&T-Spine Opener routine. I told my friends a few times during my many yoga sessions that the yoga posture cat/cow should've been renamed.

I do not comment on videos, for people usually say what I wanted to say before me.
However, this video is really good, like really, really good!
No nonsense, no fluff, no sidetracking - on point, informative and very sound.
Great job, congratulations!
Cheers

So I’ve been suffering from should problems. When you make your arm in an L position my left arm can’t even get parallel with my ear.

My shoulder feels so much better after doing these exercises (first time), thank you 🙏

Thanks for these exercise ideas. I am strengthening my upper body slowly but surely. These exercises/ stretches will help strengthen me even further. I started hanging for 1 second and am now up to 20 sec. My goal 1min! It took 2 months, so I'm a total beginner. Thanks guys 🙏💚

[rachelleo]
