Shoulder Sweep Mobility

Setup

• Begin in a quadruped position (all fours), with hands directly under your shoulders and knees directly under your hips.

• Keep your spine neutral and your core braced.

Movement

• Start by placing one hand behind your head, keeping your elbow pointed straight out.

• Initiate the movement by rotating your upper torso, bringing the elbow downward and inward toward the opposite hand.

• Fluidly reverse the motion, rotating your upper back to open up your chest, pointing your elbow toward the ceiling as you sweep your arm wide.

• Follow your elbow with your eyes to ensure maximum thoracic rotation.

• Complete the desired repetitions on one side before switching to the other.
