Is Your Rotator Cuff Rehab Missing these 5 SUBSCAPULARIS Exercises?
Спорт
Are you making these two common mistakes exercising (or even ignoring) your subscapularis? You’ll learn those two major mistakes, plus five subscapularis exercises to reduce shoulder pain and improve your strength and range of motion.
The rotator cuff is more than just for rotating your arm. The major muscles also stabilize your shoulder and, when properly trained, prevent the wear and tear damage that leads to shoulder pain. Most exercises focus on internal rotation movements that mimic real-life activities, like sports. What these exercises will do is instead focus on strength and stability in the end range of motion, build stability, and create joint centration.
The only equipment you’ll need is a tennis ball or exercise ball. Remember the cue to focus on posterior scapular tilt (that means a cup of water on your shoulder will pour down your back.)

I kept saying I felt my scapula was not moving correctly like something was stuck near the border and fell so bruised. Started rolling with a tennis ball and freed it up straight away! Also, your exercise where you raise & shrug then down is 💯

Tore my right rotator cuff playing tennis, confirmed my an MRI, a little over two years ago. Used your exercises to rehab it and now it is back to normal with full range of motion and no pain. Took a fall two weeks ago with my left arm out and know now that I damaged the subscapularis. Do you think it can also be rehabbed or is the subscapularis harder to recover than the supraspinatus tears?

Same shit different pile ;-) Can definitely be done. Process is the same.
hi - great video. I smashed ALL my rotator cuff muscles in motorbike accident and fractured arm. 2 months later I still only have 80% motion in my arm - these are really good for me. How much longer is this going to take until full motion - it's soooo slow....and I massage > stretch > strengthen most days.

Thank you coach for the video, these are my problems: Mild tendinosis changes of the rotator cuff tendons, particularly for the subscapularis with a small tear at the bursal fibers of the myotendinous junction of the supraspinatus. Doubt on the presence of a small tear at the glenoid labrum at 2 o'clock. Will these exercises help me to fix the pain?

Had an MRI and was diagnosed with subscapularis tendinosis, supraspinatus tendinosis, and bursitis of the shoulder. I had an injection of corticosteroid last week. I start physical therapy this week. I'm curious what the exercises will be. This will be my second time with PT. My goal is to be able to do heavy pressing movements again without pain.

Ok 12 weeks after a humeral head fracture and pestering doctors in the useless UK medical services, I finally find out I have tears in my supraspinatus tendon (which I had guessed) AND my subscapularis tendon. I had thought it was the long head of the biceps but as they are so close that subscap tendon will be irritating the biceps one. Aaargh. I can only manage the first exercise! Help! Is this because of the supraspinatus tendon? Is there anything else other than that first exercise I can do or shall I just stick with that for now? Thank you. I feel like death in some ways but so glad I know why I can't do some fairly standard things after 3 months.

It's hard to say from our vantage point. The Shoulder Pain Solution program was designed with people like you in mind. It's hard to say if you can avoid surgery from our vantage point. However, the program may help you to avoid it. If nothing else, it will better prepare you for a procedure and help you to recover faster afterwards. www.precisionmovement.coach/shoulder-pain-solution-yt Take a look and let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
I dropped a 90 pound dumbbell on front of the shoulder a month ago , the bear bug test is the only thing that positive and i have full range movement but i have pain when lifting weights and i have avoided that for a month , the second exercise hurts alot and i think the pain is focused on the top of the bicep tendon or around that area . If the exercises hurt should i do them ?
