Some Shoulder work

Here are some of the stretches and exercises that I’ve been doing the last two months for my shoulders.  My theory is that the more mobile my shoulders and the stronger they are in various planes, the easier it will be to recover a lift that may be a little in front or behind.  Enjoy!

Some stretches are here.

Hot potato for trunk stability  is shown here.

Reverse planks are here.

unilateral Sots presses with kettlebells are here.

My personal favorite is this one.  It can be done raised as I show it in the video, or with side all the way on the floor, down arm extended in front and internally rotated.  Either way, the moving elbow goes behind the body as it comes down.
