This exercise works to correct
imbalances between the individual shoulders. It also helps to release
tension in between the shoulder blades.
To do this exercise you will
need a mat and a foam roller. Start by lying on your back on the Foam
Roller. The Foam Roller should be parallel to your spine. Your knees
will be bent and your feet will be planted in the ground. Then reach your
fingertips towards the ceiling. Reach one hand up towards the ceiling and
then reach the other. With each reach feel the muscles between the
shoulder blades and the spine get longer. Allow the shoulders to
widen. Alternate sides as you do this exercise.
Things to think about:
Varying the speed at which you alternate sides in
this exercise will vary the feel to the exercise. If you move very slowly
this exercise will feel like individual stretches for the muscles between the
shoulder blades. If you do this exercise quickly then you will feel
muscular release due to self massage between your shoulder blades and the log.
