Shoulder Prep

The shoulder is one of the more complicated joints in the human body, so it generally benefits from a good warm up. This series will loosen up your joints in preparation for high intensity exercise, enhance performance and prevent injury.

Many of us are dealing with postural issues from sitting at a desk or chair all day, with our shoulders rolled forward and may not be aware of our limitations until we feel some pain. If you suffer from tight shoulders, struggle to put weight overhead without pain, or have a limited range of motion, you should perform this prior to the wod, and at least three times a week or more if time permits.

This should take around 5-6 minutes to complete. Work these movements into your regular warm up as well. Feel free to watch the full series above or each individual segment below!

Have fun and stay mobile my friends!
