The key to improving mobility and relieving overly tight contractile tissues is to perform the best bang-for-your-buck exercises with a slow, controlled tempo while using as much weight as you can safely handle. To up the ante, you can add in a brief isometric hold in the bottom position. This is one of those exercises.
This exercise encourages scapular upward rotation while enabling you to get a deeper stretch in the bottom position. Execution is crucial, and tempo is the key. The last thing you want to do is lose tension in a vulnerable position and put your shoulders at risk.
Place your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and maintain a 45 to 60-degree angle with your elbows. Your goal should be to find a synergistic balance of stiffness, stability, and mobility. – Charlie Gould
