Scapular Retraction - Field Goal
Begin with your arm raised and bent to
90 degrees with a resistance band wrapped
around your elbow. The band attachment should be slightly below
your shoulder and towards the midline of your
body. Pull your shoulder blade back towards your
spine. Be careful not to twist your trunk or
reach back with the arm or elbow - concentrate
on pulling the arm back by moving just the
shoulder blade against your rib cage.
Hold this position for a few seconds then slowly
return to the starting position.
Repeat 10-15 times for 3-5 sets.
