Part 2: Protect Your Shoulders by Strengthening Rotator Cuff Muscles

Written By Wendy McGannon

Avoiding injury as we age is essential to allowing us to enjoy all the activities of our lives.

Our shoulder joint is especially prone to injury if we don’t protect it.

The video below gives you two more ways to strengthen your rotator cuff muscles and provide support and stability to your shoulders.

If you missed the first video, you can catch up HERE.

It’s important to maintain good posture, relax your shoulders and engage your core while completing these exercises, and as always there should be no pain.

  • If the movement feels too easy, move further away from your band attachment.

  • If it feels too hard, move closer to your band attachment.

  • Complete 10 - 15 repetitions of each exercise with each arm.

  • If the movements feel good to you, feel free to complete a second set.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
