Teen Shoulder Mobility Excercises Video

When you sit at your desk or in the car, your head is in a forward position
and your shoulders are rounded. Over time, that is going to reduce your
shoulder mobility.

As a result, you could develop chronic tension in your neck and upper back,
and even reduce your ability to do simple tasks (such as reaching for things
stored on overhead shelves). In short, this posture is a pain in the neck
(and shoulders).

People who sit at a desk all day have allot of stress and tension in their
upper back and shoulders.

Here are 4 exercises that will increase mobility of the shoulders and help
your posture.

I have a one-minute stress-relieving stretch that will help – especially if
you do it several times over the course of the day. It may look and sound
easy – but years of forward shoulder slumping could make it a real challenge
for you.

Trust me, though. It will “hurt so good”.

First is the stick up, stand about 6 inches from the wall, hips, wrist,
elbows, hands, and shoulders pressed against the wall. Begin by having your
shoulder blades pressed together and elbows down to your side, and thne
stick up your hands over your head as high as you can and then back down. Be
sure to continue touching the wall at all times.

Another great exercise is the Y –Squat, keeping your hands in the Y
formation behind your head and in the air, perform a squat.

The push up plus is great for should mobility also. Here perform a regular
push up with and extra extension at the top to stretch out the shoulder
blades.

Finally, start with one arm up and thumb up and one arm down and thumb down,
and bring them up and across and change your thumb positions. You should
feel your shoulder blades coming apart and the going back together. Repeat
for both sides.

All these exercises can be used as a warm-up, or can be great to perform as
a break when your at work to relieve stress.
