Absolutely. Strengthening and conditioning your rotators/shoulder muscles to engage optimally prevents any leaks or instability in that region. That is my interpretation.
@@trainedforthis there are better ways to strengthen them. Doing an isometric exercise like that is better for acute pain but training a full rom external rotation movement is better for those without pqin
@@hijo1998 True, there will always be something better. In my experience, this is a good intro to preventative/corrective stretching and training to build mind-muscle awareness. I agree with what you said about ROM, its certainly a neccesity in holistic physical growth.
I'm in construction and doing these types of exercises have helped me tremendously. I can lift heavy but little motions give me pain and my shoulders are tender after work.
I wish I could see this doc. I’ve had shoulder pain for almost 8 months and nothing, not even your vids have done the trick quite yet but have been sticking with it.
how do i do this without my arm going numb from tos or impingement??? every therapist i’ve seen hasn’t understood what’s going on at all when we i explain my issue
Does this help with shoulder pain when raising arm above the head? I feel a little pain in my right shoulder before its fully extended like when doing a shoulder press. I've been doing one of your exercises, moving a small plate with arm against a wall and rotating shoulder from 0 degrees in front of chest up to 90 degrees against the wall and that seems to have helped a lot. Just want to get it from 90% to 100% health
I'm using dumbells at the moment because the lightest kettlebell I have is too painful but its getting better. Kettlebells will help more with stability I believe since the weight is more top heavy than resting centered in your palm. Hope that makes sense. I'm serious noob with this stuff. Cheers
@SpartacusCreator No this can be done with a kettlebell. Anything done with a kettlebell in the bottoms up position is good for the shoulder/rotator cuff because of the stability demands and the principle of irradiation.
That doesn't adress the cause of the infra-spinatus weakness... the pain is luckily to come back in the long run after stoping doing the exercise. But it still is a good exercise to work the rotator cuff
For example anterior pelvic tilt sees ribflar occuring, whixh prevents proper thoracic expansion as you breath (lol breathing correctly is hard) thus inhibiting correcy scapular movement causing limitations in ROM shortly followed by other muscles (rotator cuffs) compensating and getting strained... The other classic is pelvic tilt but that's another story, nothing wrong with training rotator cuffs (and should be done) but find the cause to treat the problem, or better yet prevent it.
@@coachhoover06 they're talking about dumbbell external rotation in which the line of resistance so gravity isn't opposite to the external rotation. If you lie down on your side it's fine but standing with the dumbbell going left and right doesn't put any resistance on the rotator cuff
You're wrong. Since she lacks the mobility and her arm is angled forward the weight pulls her into internal rotation and she has to externally rotate to resist that
@@hijo1998 gravity has nothing to do with externally rotating your shoulder...if you want more resistance then it would benefit more to go against gravity...but the way he is doing is also forcing the cuffs to stabilize the shoulder girdle. You are still externally rotating just by that movement in the video... You don't need gravity to workout the rotor cuff muscles you just need to externally and internally rotate them.
Even if you don’t have pain in those areas, is this a good way to train your shoulders

@@hijo1998cwhat is the other way to strengthen it? Can you show me the exercise?
if you don't have a kettle bell, hold the dumbell vertical
good

Where is it? Also what activities cause it?
thank you so much! I'm definitely going to try this, been having shoulder issues in my left side
Thank you for this exercise, it’s helped me a ton. I have my range of motion back and now my dips/push ups are back to being pain free.
The shoulders has so many tiny awkward parts to them. Doing these exercises help me after I overextended mine 🎉
I have this same pain, it’s brutal, I can’t bench press anymore. I’m going to look at all your recovery videos for it
me too! i've had to fix this issue twice now. terrible time while it's happening too
So frustrating when you want to train and just fucking can't
I prefer to do this with cables and across the body, really works your rotator cuffs
This looks similar to the stability demands of a BTN press, an exercise I really like for shoulder strength, mobility and stability!
I did a similar movement for physical therapy. Helped alot
how do i do this without my arm going numb from tos or impingement??? every therapist i’ve seen hasn’t understood what’s going on at all when we i explain my issue
Needed to see this. Thank you!
thank you. that was very helpful
Thank you for increasing your shoulder videos!
Everything is connected
Can a dumbbell also be used for this? Will it be as effective?
I've been looking for a new way to train my rotator cuffs. The cable external rotation just wasn't doing it.
Can I do this with a dumb bell?

Dude! You are a legend,
I must try this
Thank you for this
Been doing the upside kettle bell walks with some shoulder pain, so hopefully this move helps with that!
High quality content as usual 👍👍
What if the pain is from the rear delt?? Thanks
What if you have pain and struggling downwards?
I might have the exact same problem
So... Keep doing Arnold's
Annnnd, the one knee down position is great for creating a balance between the QL, psoas and glute.
She mentioned she had pain in her front shoulder, now would this be bicep tendonitis ? And would this exercise be good for that front shoulder pain?
Try Andrew lock rhomboid elbow up prone, on back and pushing elbows to floor
is shoulder clicking while rotating the shoulder normal if not how to fix it?
THANK YOU
What's a fire shoulder exercise? Should the fireman be called? I hurt my shoulder and it burns like fire. Is this bad?
Whenever I try these excercises with an elevated kettlebell my sweaty ass hand always lets me down and the kettlebell hangs 😂
Can I do this with a dumbell?
Are dumbbells effective too?

She’s really pretty 🙂
Traps/neck pain next please
Nice...
I have a very similar pain but it's more along the back of my shoulder. I can't fix it ! It's been months
Any progress?
Does the stance have any particular purpose for this drill?
I think the lunge position makes it more stable. I usually do this as a warm up standing up
Half-kneeling limits the amount of weight you can use which limits compensation and in half-kneeling all of the joints are stacked properly 👍
Is this physical therapy
🔥🔥🔥
Can you also do this with a dumbel raised up?
No, nor with a kettlebelle, it should be done with a cable, as the resistance standpoint is what determines on if this exercise works or not.
@SpartacusCreator No this can be done with a kettlebell. Anything done with a kettlebell in the bottoms up position is good for the shoulder/rotator cuff because of the stability demands and the principle of irradiation.

❤🎉
What can you do if you don't have a kettle bell?
Get a kettlebell. You only need a small one for this exercise, and they aren’t that expensive.
Sh I had someone to help watch my form 🎉
Wish
perform in front of mirror
You guys are using muscle in motion videos and not giving them credit. SHAME!
Where that GTR at Abbie???

Lol bro you really need to tone it down with the "🔥". It's getting a lil bit cringey
Otherwise great content 👌🏽
Cringe to you then dont watch

She mid
What's shawty's @??
Yeah she still couldn't maintain external rotation at the end lol... it feels better because there's blood moving around. It's short lived.
Most shoulder issues are from funky hips.
wait really?
@@newt2120 no definitely not poor shoulder mobility and weakness in the rotator cuff cause most shoulder issues

@@alexanderohanlon8825 so i just strengthen my hips and glutes then ny shoulders will just get better?
@@alexanderohanlon8825 im gonna give it a shot
Taking this as a rotator cuff exercise is plain simply wrong tho. Thats like saying Dumbbell external rotaitons train your rotator cuffs...
Lol...they actually do....try it yourself and see...just try.
How are you externally rotating your arm without the rotator cuff?

Can you do this with a dumbell? Modified grip?
