Use this SMR exercise AFTER you do the Side Roll and the Pecs Knead (or one of it’s alternatives). This SMR exercise addresses one of the 4 rotator cuff muscles, the infraspinatus. 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 pectoralis minor muscle is 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 pec minor or your issue is likely to come right back. You should do this movement at least once every 2 weeks. (more often is better) |
