Yoga: Shoulder Stability Flow




This yoga flow routine, Shoulder Stability Flow, can help warriors maintain strength and range of motion in their shoulders allowing optimal performance.


Sometimes we forget that our shoulders take on a substantial amount of load not only throughout our training sessions but throughout our entire day. When training, we're pushing and pulling and when out of our hyperbolic training chamber, we're driving, holding our phones etc. Overtime this can take a toll on our shoulders and if we don't consistently practice low intensity strengthening and mobility training, we can end up sidelined due to aches and pains or even worse, causing serious issues such as frozen shoulder or shoulder impingement. This yoga flow routine, Shoulder Stability Flow, can help warriors improve strength and maintain and improve range of motion in the shoulders and surrounding areas.
