SHOULDERS
Loop Band Overhead Shoulder Stretch
This mobility drill uses a loop band to add light tension while you take your shoulders through a full overhead arc. The resistance keeps your arms wide and encourages a fuller range of motion, making it a good warm-up before pressing.
How to do it
- 1
Stand with feet a bit wider than your shoulders and knees softly bent.
- 2
Hold a loop band with both hands, palms down; a narrower grip makes it harder.
- 3
Raise your arms straight overhead and pull outward to keep tension on the band.
- 4
Sweep your arms back and down toward your lower back in a wide arc.
- 5
Reverse the arc, bringing the band back over your head and down to the front.
- 6
Continue the circular motion for the desired reps.
