If You Want To Avoid Shoulder Injuries for Life, Do These 5 Exercises

Back in 2020, I had a major shoulder injury that took me out of weightlifting for nearly 3 months. While this period came with lots of impatience and discouragement, the process of rehabbing from zero taught me so much about how our shoulders work. Most importantly, I became aware of the secret to maximizing stability at this joint for ultimate injury prevention. The secret lies in shoulder protraction or the act of separating the shoulder blades from each other. While we’re often taught to squeeze them together during upper body movements, very few practice the opposite action. Yes, this is a subtle movement, but it can make all the difference in ensuring that you not only have a sufficient range of motion here but that the shoulder is supported by strong muscles that know when to engage at the right times. To bring you right in on how I rehabbed my injury, I want to introduce the graded progression program of shoulder movements that led me out of my chronic pain into strength and function once again. In less than a month I felt like a completely new person and I believe the same can happen to you! <a href="https://davidliira.medium.com/if-you-want-to-avoid-shoulder-injuries-for-life-do-these-5-exercises-33ab545d88bd">Read More</a>
