At Beyond Measure Fitness, we’re all about finding simple yet effective ways to help you move better and feel great. This week, we’re spotlighting a Mobility Movement of the Week that’s perfect for improving both posture and shoulder mobility. If reaching or pressing overhead has been a struggle, this exercise can make a big difference—and all you need is a wall!
Why Shoulder Mobility Matters
Good shoulder mobility is essential for daily activities, from lifting groceries to reaching for items on a high shelf. Limited mobility in the shoulders can lead to compensatory movements that strain other muscles, impacting overall posture and potentially causing discomfort over time. This movement is designed to target and release those stubborn areas, so you can get back to moving freely and confidently.
How to Do the Movement
Watch our video to see the movement in action, where we break down each step. The exercise works by gently stretching and activating the muscles around your shoulder and upper back, promoting better alignment and making it easier to lift and reach overhead without straining.
The Benefits of Consistent Mobility Work
While it might seem like a small addition to your routine, adding just a few minutes of targeted mobility work can yield big rewards. Consistently performing mobility movements can:
- Improve your posture
- Increase your range of motion
- Enhance your overall performance in workouts
- Reduce the likelihood of injuries
