Use this SMR exercise AFTER you do the Lats Roll and the Pecs Hand Press (or one of it's alternatives). This SMR exercise addresses two of the 4 rotator cuff muscles, the infraspinatus and the teres minor. If you have trouble with rotator cuff issues, especially pain in the back of your shoulder, then this exercise is for you! Keep in mind that the lats and pectoralis minor muscles are involved in everything you do that involves the shoulder blade. You will likely benefit from loosening knots in the infraspinatus, but be sure you stretch out the lats and pec minor or your issue is likely to come right back. |
