Internal shoulder rotation is the action of bringing your hand towards the mid line of your body with your elbow flexed or with a straight arm turning your palm from facing forward to turning it around as much as possible, and your palms facing back. Most people have an abundance of internal shoulder or gh(glenohumeral) rotation due the action of sitting at a desk all day at a computer or other day to day chores that involve inward rotation of our shoulders. Make sure to keep your shoulders down during this exercise.
Set up: With the band in your right hand tie the band to a solid object on the right side of your body. Externally rotate your shoulder as much as possible with your elbow flexed to 90 degrees.
Movement: Keeping your elbow flexed and your arm tight to your torso slowly bring your hand toward the midline of your body and then back to the starting position.
Frequency: 2-3 times a week Reps: 12-15. Sets: 1-3 Tempo: 4:0:4:0 Rest: 30-60 seconds
