Toss aside the lacrosse ball and stop over-stretching your upper traps. Instead, try movements that contract the traps through their full range under load. This signals your brain to relax the muscles, improving blood flow and reducing nerve tugging.  Often, the upper traps take over from deep neck flexors and stabilizers. Addressing these muscles can relieve tension from the traps. Additionally, limited thoracic spine movement can contribute to neck discomfort. Incorporating rotational movements can be very effective in easing tightness in your upper traps.

Here are 4 exercises to strengthen the posterior chain (back side) of our Upper Body, especially those little muscles responsible for healthy shoulders & proper scapular movement.

⚠️ Muscles don’t turn ON and OFF as simple as this visual. In all 4 exercises all 4 muscles mentioned (and many more) are activated to a certain degree. They all share many things, but here are the key differences:

1. Prone Y- Raises – The scapula in this position starts in an upwardly rotated position. This puts the body in an optimal position to target the lower traps which are involved in both scapular upward rotation & scapular depression. 🎯 Lower Traps

Shoulders feel a little tight and cranky?

Our shoulders love movement and getting the muscles that help stabilize the shoulder itself will help relieve feelings of tightness.

Try these 3 exercises to help your shoulders feel amazing again 👇

1️⃣ Shoulder circles at wall (x 10 reps/direction/arm)

* stand far enough away from the wall that you don't have to struggle to make a full circle
 • * avoid moving into areas of pinching or pain

2️⃣ Scapular retractions (x 15 reps)

* focus on pinching the shoulder blades together
 • * avoid shrugging; you shouldn't feel this in your neck (yes, it appears like I'm using my neck/upper traps...they just like to show off for the camera 😜)

3️⃣ Shoulder external rotations (x 10 reps/arm)

* keep your elbow on the wall and think about rotating you
