it's like a flat bench db press.....only. you start with your arm fully extended up. then protract your scapula, so the weight goes up a few inches....hold....back down....up...hold. strengthens the serratus anterior, which holds the scap close to the ribcage.

Oh, I see what you're saying. Sounds like a pretty good exercise actually.

It is. I enjoy them also.

do you enjoy them while laying on a foam roller also?

Nope. Buying a foam roller is on my to-do list however.

So you've started doing them with the foam roller vertically pity?

I'm actually working on a whole mobility article...maybe I'll hit you up as well. I know you said you didn't think it was needed but I think it is. The problem is people see the info but don't know how to integrate it or are trying to decide that this piece of info is better than the other...

The big thing is "stretching" versus the dynamic mobility warmups and such. It's a HUGE source of confusion.

Keep up the good work, Pity.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

That sucks about the shoulder man.

Good solid form on the front squats though.

Nice front squats.

I also like dumbbell press-ups. I do them real light though - 25 lbs at the most for like 2 sets of 25 reps. They helped in my shoulder recovery.
