Proper shoulder mobility is something that unfortunately a lot of folks lack, 'halos' are a great movement that will help with mobility and stability of the shoulder and scapula. Halos can be done with a variety of tools, here we see a single arm halo using an Indian club, the movement has the same focus but the tool will place different demands that the shoulder/scapula need to stabilize and control. ⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @gfunctional⠀ ・・・⠀ SHOULDER SERIES: CLUB HALO⠀ ⠀ This little baby has been my bread and butter over the last couple of months. Once again, inspired by weight plate or kettlebell Halos. ⠀ WHEN PERFORMING:⠀ 🔹️Spine ⬆️, chin tucked and don't let your body weight shift (feel your feet).⠀ 🔹️Spiral the arm inward toward midline, then raise your arm overhead with the club head pointed downward. Reach your elbow towards the roof and make your armpit as big as possible (sounds weird, I get it). This should light up serratus ant, upper trap and a few other buddies.⠀ 🔹️When lowering, initiate the downward movement with the scap. You will now be taking it from it's highest position, down to the lowest (back and down).⠀ 🔸️In the 1st version, keep the arm pressed and rotated back. The path of the scap is easiest here, it rotates downwardly ⤵️ into the "Back and down" position. Dont let the elbow tip back.⠀ 🔸️2nd variation is a bit harder to pull off. The weight being in front of the body places a bit more stability demand on the scap. STILL, Keep the shoulder spiralled outwardly while the arm descends (elbow in, hand out) and don't let the scap tilt up as the arm is lowering. Think of pulling your Scap around your ribcage ↪ SLOWLY into the "Back and Down" shoulder blade garage.⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

A lot of folks out there might believe they have good hip abduction/range of motion....This is a nice hip drill that will really test the true range of your hip abduction, here the wall is used to assist in keeping the body in proper alignment. This could be used as a test for the hip abduction and used for working the end range of motion as well, great tip and demo Samantha!⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @movewellphilly⠀ ・・・⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

Some exercises are complex which can make it tougher to create the proper pattern and movement. This is a great demonstration of how we can segment different parts of an exercise into separate movements which can help us focus and master the movements that we may be having more trouble with. This is a very effective movement to develop an understanding how the drop in a BB jerk should feel while helping build stability in the shoulders to control that overhead weight. ⠀ This is definitely and effective exercise, you can find more from Coach Jeremy @coach_bell_21⠀ ⠀ Demo by @coach_bell_21⠀ ・・・⠀ Want to improve stability in the overhead position!?? Try these Jerk Recoveries demonstrated by @amyspeed23. Jerk recoveries are an excellent position specific drill to improve shoulder,trunk and hip stability when accepting a load overhead. These pillar system must work synergistically to produce efficient stability during all weight bearing tasks. ⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

your thoracic spine mobility can directly put you into improper positions and movement patterns. This is a nice demo of a thoracic stretch/mobility drill thay can help combat a stuck thoracic spine. ⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @exphys_kitty⠀ ⠀ ・・・⠀ ⚬Weighted Lat/Thoracic Stretch⚬⠀ .⠀ .⠀ You may have seen this stretch with a stick, but in this stretch instead of the stick we are using a 10kg Dumbbell, placing your elbows onto the bench, keeping them in line with your shoulders come down into a prayer like stretch allowing the dumbbell to drop you into that stretch what you want to do in this stretch is to keep your biceps every close to your ears. .⠀ .⠀ Ease into it slowly hold it for about 20 seconds then repeat 2-3 times.⠀ .⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

Swiss ball's and Bosu balls are great tools that help challenge the bodies stability & control. When working on stability with these tools its important to focus on the control of the movement rather than the speed. Here is a nice demo of a pike push up with a Swiss ball and a boss ball, this definitely could be broken up into multiple movements if you are looking to build up to this combined movement.⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @sstinnett_fit⠀ ・・・⠀ I came up with this exercise at the end of my shoulder day the other day. I love finding ways to challenge my core control, stability, and strength. This is a Stability Ball Pike with Bosu Shoulder Press. The higher into the pike you go, the harder the press and balance become! ⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

Learning different variations of an exercise is great way not to get held up when there is a lack of equipment. Coach Julian demos for us a way that we can use a seated cable row to perform pulldowns that are still really effective.⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @smith.julian⠀ ・・・⠀ Someone got your fav lat pull down? No worries! Any seated row can be concerted! But in all honestly.. been liking these more and more! Almost eliminates ALL torso movement!⠀ -⠀ This full workout will be posted to The Daily Pump, on my site, tomorrow! Updated daily. Link in bio⠀ -⠀ Using a close V grip, pulling toward lower chest. Biggest stretch possible and pausing on the contraction!⠀ _________________________________________________________⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

Foam rolling and trigger point work is great, but its important that we get the muscles and joints moving as well. Tony demos for us a great warm up that really takes care of all planes of movement to get your prepped and ready. Tony has some great demos and info to check out @tony.comella⠀ ⠀ Demo by: @tony.comella⠀ ・・・⠀ .⠀ LOWER BODY MOVE PREP⠀ -----⠀ 🔥 Next training session, instead of picking up the foam roller, try this movement prep.
