Get Better Shoulder Mobility and Strength With This Exercise (Useful Warm-Up)

The Resisted Wall Angel Exercise is one of my favorites as it combines both a mobility and strength component. This exercise is helpful with activating the muscles around the shoulder blades which are muscle groups that are very important in high quality shoulder function and health..and the muscles are activated in a various range of motion which is very useful.

These muscles (Middle Trapezius, Rhomboids, and Lower Trapezius) are vital in maintaining stability to the shoulder blades as well as the shoulder which assists in healthy rotator cuff muscles.

This exercise is important and helpful for Jiu-Jitsu athletes or those that sit excessively as it can help with activating muscles to open the chest while activating important muscles that assist with posture and maintaining good shoulder position in the joint.

Also a useful technique prior to weight-lifting.

Start with a light band and perform 2-3 sets of 5 repetitions.
