The Best Way To Warm Up The Shoulders

October 7, 2020 by Gary Berger Leave a Comment

There are a few concepts I like to follow when warming up before activity. These concepts are important because they can help with mitigating injury risk during activity as well as prepare your body for that specific task.

In this video I focus these concepts on the shoulder joint.

The concepts include:

1. Increase your body temperature.
2. Move the area through its available range of motion.
3. Activate the muscles.
4. Load the joint.
5. Lightly begin the activity.

You can apply these principles to different areas as well such as the hips, knees, ankle, etc.

Using this mobility drill can help with improving range of motion and decreasing stiffness in the shoulders and the mid and low back.

Make sure that you move within a comfortable range with is pain-free.

Adjusting the distance away from the wall will assist with amount of mobility/stretch.

Further distance from the wall = Less mobility requirement.
