One of the most effective shoulder mobility exercises you can do! The eight against the back of the shoulders help create a loaded dynamic stretch. That resistance is what helps the shoulders set more ideally for optimal function.

3 sets of 30 to 90 seconds. Try to maintain as straight of a body line as possible. Rest your elbows against the edge of a table or bench in this case. If possible, have your hips elevated as well and keep a posterior pelvic tilt (meaning try to tuck your tailbone and make your butt disappear).

This also greatly helps improve a stronger midline aka core. You’ll want to fire up those transverse abdominals here.

Have fun!
