S2 | Internal Rotation with Scap Retraction


To improve scapula stability when performing internal rotation. Using the band around the shoulder helps promote retraction and reduces the pulling forward movement with rotator cuff exercises. Good for people who struggle to keep the scapula still in internal rotation of the shoulder joint and tend to roll thew shoulder forward in this movement.

Demonstration and Instructions






Loop one back around the same shoulder then through a fixed pole or object. Slightly retract and then internally rotate the shoulder with the same side. Don't let the scapula pull or move forwards, keeping retraction or backward pressure / tension on the band.
