Mobility for Healthy Shoulders 💪 #shorts #strength #yoga #fitness

If your shoulders feel stiff, heavy, or tight from training, stress, posture, or daily life, this gentle mobility flow is for you.

🌸 These movements combine shoulder opening, rotation, chest expansion, and thoracic mobility to help improve movement, release tension, and bring more ease and freedom into the upper body through slow, controlled movement.

⚠️Stop if you have pain. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any exercise program.

1) Seated Shoulder Circles: Sit tall with your elbows bent and your hands resting lightly on your shoulders. Slowly circle the elbows forward, up, back, and down, moving through a comfortable range. Keep the breath steady and let the movement come from the shoulders, not the neck.

👀 Focus: Shoulder Mobility • Upper Back Awareness

✨Cue: Move slowly and keep the neck relaxed.

2) Seated Shoulder Slides: Start seated with the knees bent and the hands placed behind the hips. Press through the hands as the hips glide forward, opening through the shoulders and chest. Allow the knees to move past the toes or gently toward the floor, then return to center with control.

👀 Focus: Shoulder Opening • Chest Expansion • Mobility

✨Cue: Lift through the chest and move with control, not momentum.

3) Prone Shoulder Rolls: Start lying face down with the arms extended out to the sides. Slowly roll onto one side, using the opposite hand to lightly brace and support the movement. Return through center and repeat on the other side with control.

👀 Focus: Shoulder Mobility • Chest Opening • Spinal Rotation

✨Cue: Move slowly and keep the shoulders relaxed as the chest rotates open.

4) Thread the Needle: Start in tabletop with the hands under the shoulders and knees under the hips. Slide one arm underneath the body, rotating through the upper back as the shoulder and side of the head move toward the floor. Press gently into the supporting hand to deepen the rotation, then return to center and switch sides.

👀 Focus: Thoracic Rotation • Shoulder Mobility • Spinal Movement

✨Cue: Rotate through the upper back and keep the hips steady.
