SOS For Your Shoulders – Monthly Tip for Industrial Athletes
The shoulder is your body’s most mobile and least stable joint. Remember SOS – stretch, observe, strengthen – to maintain mobility-stability balance for optimal shoulder health.
Tips
- Gently stretch your back, neck, wrists and chest to improve shoulder stability.
- Get a checkup if you observe a clicking or popping sound; it could be a sign of impingement.
- Do weight-training exercises to strengthen your mid-back, sides and external shoulder rotators.
