As a trainer i frequently come across individuals suffering neck pain when carrying out pushing movements. I’ll commonly find a lack of scapular mobility combined with poor coordination and weak push strength. First I like to work on shoulder mobility which creates more movement potential, then rewire the movement patterns of the shoulder girdle increasing the awareness and finally strengthen these new pathways. Scapular push ups when executed correctly is a great way to summon the strength of the sarratus anterior which improves pushing mechanics and reduces neck pain. I commonly prescribe this exercise for general shoulder functionality. This movement alone won’t solve all your problems but it’s definitely a key fundamental. #onlinecoach #scapularstability #scapularwinging #push #coordination #neckpain #strength #sats #movebetter #basics (at Oslo, Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAK9uDRAXgv/?igshid=11gjyczbcrzq1
