Our goal is to (1) create more space in the joint (2) articulate the joint in its full range of motion, and (3) strengthen the muscles of the rotator cuff.

    These exercises were a game changer for me. I had bad shoulder pain flare up every few days from playing the drums and any other activity that required strength and mobility of my shoulders - especially the right shoulder. I began the exercises with soup cans, then advanced to physical therapy resistance bands. I did the exercises at least a few days a week for several months and continue to do so a few times a week as part of my regimen. I also lay flat on my back with feet on the ground and knees bent, with arms spread out to my sides to stretch my pecs and shoulders - I do this for 5 mins every couple days. The lack of pain and greater mobility has been a revelation. Time to fix everything else :-) quick edit - the only exercises I did were the ones he did with the yoga bricks.

    Having a history of three shoulder surgeries (Labrum Tears) and now diagnosed with a torn rotator cuff, your explanation on atrophy was a lightbulb moment on why I keep getting injured. Thank you for sharing your expertise to help educate chronically injured people like me to understand the problem and exercises to rehab.
