Control Drill: Glute Leg RaiseGlute Leg Raise – lie on your back as in the previous stretch. Raise your leg. This time, instead of just moving the leg, push up with the heel of the bent leg so that your lower body comes off the ground. Raise your leg and body until your thighs are parallel and your torso is in a straight line with your straight leg – only your shoulders and arms will be anchored against the ground at the top of this drill. Return to the start position. Lower your body to the ground but keep your straight leg off the ground throughout the control drill.

Exercise: Arnold PressGrasp a dumbbell in each hand and place your upper arms at your sides. Bend at the elbow so you are holding the dumbbells upright, palms facing in (towards yourself). Begin to raise the dumbbells, at the same time rotating your palms out. When the dumbbells are at the level of the top of your head, your palms should be facing each other (this is known as “neutral”). At the top of the movement, your palms should be facing out and your wrists should be directly over your shoulders.

Control Drill: Scapular RetractionScapular Retractions – grasp light dumbbells (5 pounds) in both arms. Lie face down on a bench. Bring your arms up as far as they will go, in a rowing motion (bending at the shoulder and elbow). Now, keep this “upper” position, and focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together. Hold the squeeze for a full second then relax without lowering the arms. Repeat this ten or more times.

Exercise: Standing Military (Shoulder) PressTypically, this exercise would start at the front of the chest. If specified, you may perform this behind the neck. Behind the neck does place stress on the rotator cuff and may cause impingement, so this exercise is not recommended behind the neck if you have any type of rotator cuff condition. Start with the bar at the top of your chest (elbows will be below shoulders). Contract your shoulder muscles and drive the bar upwards, stopping just before your arms lock out. Return to the start position, but do not rest the bar on your chest or upper back. Find a grip that your wrist will be directly over your elbow when your elbow is on the same level as your shoulder. In other words, when your upper arm is parallel to the floor, your arm should be bent at a right angle.

Exercise: Seated French PressGrasp a dumbbell with both hands and hold high over your head. You may lock the arms at the top, but by keeping them slightly bent, you will increase the time that the triceps is under tension. Make sure that your elbows remain either directly above or slightly behind your shoulders. Drop the weight behind your head without allowing your elbows to drift – your upper arms should remain perpendicular to the ground. Flex your triceps and drive the weight back up and over your head to complete the rep.
