Simple Band Work To Improve Shoulder Mobility

This is a look at how to use a resistance band to improve shoulder mobility.

Holding onto the band in front of your trunk with both hands outstretched away from your body, take the right side up above the right side of your head and back behind you to the right. With the left hand, bring the band back to the front of your body following a similar arc along the left side of your head. Repeat for several repetitions.

Then do the same thing but begin by taking your left hand back first and bring the band back along the right side of your head.

Then take both sides back at the same time, and then bring them forward at the same time.

To make this more challenging and to further improve shoulder mobility, try shortening your grip to some degree on both sides of the band to create more tension through all movements.
