Shoulder mobility, thoracic spine extension, and shoulder blade stability. Tests the full range of overhead motion.
Modern life rarely requires us to reach overhead. We lose what we don't use. Healthy overhead mobility protects your shoulders, improves posture, and is essential for countless daily activities.
Stand with your back against a wall, feet 6 inches away
Press your lower back, upper back, and head against the wall
Raise both arms overhead, trying to touch the wall with your thumbs
Keep your elbows straight and arms close to your ears
Hold for 60 seconds without arching your lower back off the wall
If you can't touch the wall, note how far away you are
Practice shoulder circles and thoracic extensions daily
Hanging from a bar is excellent for improving this
Do it without the wall, focusing on full arm extension
Hold light weights, or do it while walking
Be honest with yourself. This is about knowing where you are, not where you think you should be.
