Shoulder Prehab

Shoulder Overhead Mobility Drill brought to you by @webpt
Thoracic Spine Extension
.
Tag a friend that needs to improve their overhead mobility❗️
.
Closed chain exercises are a great way to really feel the serratus anterior activate by pushing AWAY from the floor.
.
Here is a Scapula Push-Up ➡️Downward facing dog
.
To perform this exercise:
1️⃣Find an elevated surface to perform a scapula push-up (which is performed by protracting your shoulder blade). Protraction = Pushing your body away from the floor
2️⃣Transition into a downward dog position. Maintain scapula engagement. In addition to improving your shoulder motion, it will help address extension in your thoracic spine as well.
✅ Focus on the upward rotation at the Scapula again.
❌Avoid shrugging as this comprises scapular elevation which is often a compensation of excessive upper trapezius or levator scapulae activation.
💪🏽To progress this exercise in terms of shoulder demand, perform this exercise on the floor.
