A Shoulder Stretch that makes EVERYTHING BETTER.

Would you like to see my 5yr handstand journey? What do you like seeing? Let me know in the comments below! My Free Program ► www.strengthside.com/thedaily Follow us on IG ► instagram.com/thestrengthside

[@rachvonk6517]

Yes please!!! Been trying to get the hang of handstands for so long!

[@garethonda5516]

Would love to see your handstand journey! Been digging all your videos and especially inspired by your training videos. It's really nice to see how you work up to and progress with your movements. As a result I've started to just move more without over thinking it; without worrying about 'not' being able to achieve it. Ironically this has resulted in me analysing my moves even more, however by trial and error and watching myself - in essence just doing more and putting the work in and feeling great!!! Keep up the awesome work man!

[@Angela091163]

YES!

[@SerenePhotoScenes]

Do it!!! That would be cool to see. Im just learning to do handstands. The longest I have held is about 15 seconds. It usually takes me 4 to 5 tries before i can get a good handstand

[@ffxiarcadius]

no

[@SaturnoMovement]

BEST shoulder mobility exercise without a doubt! 👌🏽 Coincidentally we filmed the same exercise for next week’s video 😅 looking forward to connect my brothers! Keep up the great work 💙 -Gabo

[@Strengthside]

Powerful one brother! Good to see we are on the same page 😁👍🏼 much love to yall

[@losaguirre1108]

Mi amigo Gabo podría ayudarte con esas stalder presses for sure!! @saturnomovement

[@FredoLua]

Love you work! Thank you for all your knowledge! On another note. I will forever wonder why they call it "mobility " exercises instead break dance training. That's what all b dancers do. Pretty sure that's where it comes from.

[@Rohitkumar592]

It's times like this I realise that finding a stick is not as simple as I thought it to be. Edit- Just wanted to say that don't try with a stick that is smaller than the one shown in the vid, doing this with a lesser arm width hurts a lot ( I tried, sigh), instead do it with some towel or other piece of cloth of appropriate length if you want to.

[@JustineEllushon]

So funny, I just happened to find two in my closet. So random because they were from when my little sister was a kid in karate 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@kevincesaire9638]

I just a broom lol

[@Strengthside]

a towel or t shirt works great!

[@hussain8776]

I used one as big as his but thought that it was too easy and too good to be true that you can just do it with your hands far away from each other and did it while my hands are as close as i can go which was kinda painful lol

[@ivanalcantar6841]

Got a tip for those who cant do this with a broomstick. Use the weakest resistance band you can get and mimic the same movement. If the arms come out more its fine as long as you feel that stretch on the upper back. You can also move lower or higher like he does and feel a stretch in the pecs. Hope this helps!

[@Mike-hw5jp]

Would love to see a 5 year HS progress video. Any content you guys put out is gold. Much love

My shoulders have been not been feeling good these days hopefully this would help. Thanks for sharing these workouts

I really enjoy seeing how much fun you make it all look. 🤙🏽

This is great...52 years old and getting into movement and body weight exercise. Just got some rings, working on flexibility and my lizard crawl is getting better. Great videos Josh...many thanks. Jason (uk)

[@Petewik]

Ive just seen your channel, my shoulders are shite due to couch surfing but added this shoulder stress to my morning routine. Thank you.

[@andhaiden]

I needed this so much today. Thanks for taking the time to show me how to heal this area

Yes, need the minimalist shoe recommendations, too. Thanks man

Hello Strength Side ☀️💚 Big Thanks 🙏😍🌺

[@sidilicious11]

I love stretching with sticks, been doing it for years. And good for you for not over doing your tattoos.

[@Revelacion320]

Awesome video, I enjoyed the whole thing. I used your shoulder stretching since I’ve been increasing my gain on my workouts and yesterday I did shoulders. I came across your channel a couple weeks ago and I have doing some of the stretches you post and I do have to say they are helping me a lot. Thanks for sharing.

[@primalperry5667]

That flow stuff looks really fun!

[@andrewcopping1863]

Please, do show us your handstand journey! That would be awesome! Thanks for the shoulder stretch guidance.

[@sankara307]

Amazing vid, sharing to all of my friends with their stiff shoulders

[@domingosneto864]

something that really helped me improve my muscle up a lot was looking at the bar while pulling. You can try and see how it feels if you want ;) great video!

[@Strengthside]

Nice I’ll try that out!

[@tz8565]

Its amazing how you transformed yourself from a big bulky guy to a shredded, lean flexible dude. What made you want to change?

[@gudiarenu7246]

This video is much awaited and I have requested you earlier to make simple shoulder strech video and you made it. Thanks 💜

[@smf6167]

9:02 'a lotta ups and downs' on your shoulder stand journey 😂😂😂😂😂 love that. Would be great to see that progression

[@diekoloreoluwaogundana2881]

I took up your core workout routine. Definitely need a shoulder stretch

[@00Dora00]

Josh it's always a pleasure watching you move, flo, live and create these entertaining videos where we get to share in your journey and progress. Absolutely I would love to see a 5 year handstand journey video. Send it!

[@tinkmichael-wizagwamba6966]

You make your videos fun, practical and realistic etc. - keep it up !

[@tomelliott6044]

That flow was cool man

[@skgbrds]

Yes! Rad video! Shoulder stretch feels amazing and seems to open up unused lung capacity. Thank you!

[@ericl.winter3622]

Absolutely love what you do! To be able to move like you do, would be absolutely amazing! I’m gonna try to incorporate some of your techniques over time. Being an older guy, though, it’s definitely gonna challenging.

[@michaeltodd7008]

Love the training and jumps. I personally use them. They are helpful.

[@indriadrayton1132]

This is going to help my shoulders!!!

[@JailanSimon]

Thanks for the lesson

[@subash8691]

Great work guys. I've been following your knee strengthening workout for a few days. Looking forward to more body correction and flexibility routines that is simple for rigid bodies like me.

Xero shoes are so good! I have the HFS and they’ve held up great. ✌️

[@davidmurphy4676]

It would be great to see your five year progression into full shoulder stand. I’d love to make it a goal but fear that time ( and my 200 lb weight ) might be against me . Shoulder stretches wonderful thank you. My rotator cuff a bit messed up gears ago .

[@guwu4479]

ATX gang! This is what I need to try, my back has been incredibly stiff. Especially near my interior scaps. Hurts to even breathe sometimes. Any other stretches you’d recommend as well?

[@j.w.4078]

You are a great inspiration for me 👍😎

Good timing mate.. You can this with a exercise band and it's call shoulder dislocations

[@stephenhumphrey7586]

I was born with a deformity in my shoulders that makes them perpetually (uncomfortably) forward, this exercise is the perfect counterpart to it; Thank you!

Around the worlds! Yaaasss will from now on be calling them that. Hope it catches on, way better name.

[@pontonidesign]

Looked mega fun!

[@Maothiel]

This looks great, I'm having a hard time finding suitable upper body exercises that don't involve a lot of weight through the arms. I am currently recovering a broken clavicle from about 6 weeks ago on one side and a dislocated shoulder from January on the other side. Want to be able to do more quadrupedal movements once things have bounced back.

[@stephenhawk8384]

Those were some serious Texas-sized raindrops that started to fall. I’ve just started working on some of the stretches and movement activities that you demonstrate so well. I can see where it’s going to be a while before I get even a fraction of the smoothness and flow you make look so effortless. Should be a fun journey, though.

[@coldblood7429]

Like that stuff a lot! Could listen and watch the whole day long!! If u ever come to germany let me know bro!! Really wanne have a session with u!!

The broom 🧹 stick at your home place must have default side. Can you please suggest how much long should the stick be, in order not to over stretch or injure the muscles. 😅
