// shoulder + spinal mobility //
I think I have an upper body theme going this week 🙌😂I mean, it’s definitely looking like the focus🤷♀️
Although, we all know it’s not JUST the arms I’m working here…right?
Ok, so what is the focus?
🌸shoulder strength/mobility
🌸spinal stability/articulation
🌸core strength
🌸glute strength
🌸CONCENTRATION
Sadly, I forgot to note my springs here when I recorded these last week. But I’m usually on a blue for these. So let’s just say, keep it light enough to maintain form, but heavy enough to challenge those shoulders - you pick 😉 Keep the hips just above the heels (not resting on them) - you’ll get those glutes fired up in no time🍑❤️🔥
First slide - short loops over the elbows, straps between the thumbs and first fingers. Keep the carriage steady for this move as the arms lift and lower.
Second slide - same set up as above, but the arms slide back and front (in the same plane, think of sliding over a table top).
Third slide - same set up, but the arms circle (each direction), think of swimming strokes.
Fourth slide - bonus spinal mobility move, to roll out all of the spinal stabilization🤩 Think of a roll down, finding your extension at the end. Then reversing that spinal articulation💗
Like these moves? Let’s keep it social!
LIKE to show some love💗
