4 INCREDIBLE Shoulder Mobility Exercise Progressions [⬆️ Strength & ROM]

Ready to improve your shoulder mobility? Have pain or struggle in certain shoulder positions? You'll learn a simple shoulder progression for mobility gains that last. Increase your range of motion and your strength in the end ranges.

This routine is for anyone who wants to improve their shoulder mobility or even relieve shoulder pain if you have some in different ranges of motion. You'll learn why static stretching, while frequently recommended, doesn't help either mobility or pain.

There are progressions in this routine. There's a basic version, then a progressive version. It's best to switch back and forth between the two.

Exercise 1 trains a range of motion most people don't use. It works your internal and external rotators. Remember to keep your chin tucked, and your lumbar spine relaxed.

Exercise 2 integrates your shoulders with your core. You'll need a wall to lean against for the basic version and a stability ball for the progression. Maintain core stability through the exercise, and do not let your rib cage flare out.

Exercise 3 improves your shoulder range of motion. Avoid moving your head and spine during the exercise. For the progressions, you'll need something to hang from, a chair, or even gymnastics rings if you have them available.

Exercise 4 trains abduction, flexion, and external rotation in the shoulders. You'll need a stretchy cable.
