this is great advise. make sure to press armpits forward and out while doing exercise. I have spent years trying to press my shoulder blades back and down which activates the traps instead. this video shows how to truly activate the serratus.

It's amazing how easy it was to perform this poorly. you really have to have your scapulae flat and fully posteriorly tilted or its so easy to use lats and erectors/rhomboids and reinforce the problem. I've spent 20 years with nagging shoulder and neck pain from being mismanaged and given exercises with no regard for compensation patterns. The only help I've found is coach E, Dr. Evan Osar, and MSK neurology, all of whom teach similar things in unique ways. Thank you

When pushing the elbows down I find it's very natural to do those things you say not to do. Pinxlch the shoulder blades, etc. Especially when trying to tense the lats as you push down. It just seems rather natural to do so.

Been doing a some over head presses and bench press, and now i have right sided scapular winging. I have low body fat so i can see my serratus anterior muscle and they don't look that weak. Should i still work my serratus? That area already look more buffed than my lats but every article or video says to work my serratus. What do you think?

Is it better to do these before or after a training session or separately
@PrecisionMovementCoach3 жыл бұрын
Prior to or separately will be better than after. If you do it prior it will help to pre-load or stimulate your nervous system so that the muscles participate better during the session. If you do them separately it will be a good training session for the muscles involved. If you do it after the muscles will likely be fatigued and the session won't be as effective. - Coach Joshua, Team PM

Does not work unless you cue keeping the rib cage down.

That is definitely important to focus on. There will still be some serratus anterior activation if the rib cage elevates but it will be more effective to try to suppress rib cage elevation.

I just started training my serratus since I had scapular winging on one side. I really start to get the hang of what it is to retract the scapula by using the serratus anterior. Is it normal that when I retract my scapula using this method, with my arm overhead (for a pull-up for example), i feel my serratus rubbing on my ribcage on my weak side? It's a strange feeling.

@FredoCorleone7 жыл бұрын
Brandon Roskelley Google "pec minor" and look where it attaches, it attaches to the upper part of the scapula so it downward rotates the scapula so it's an antagonist to lower fibers of the serratus anterior that upward rotates the scapula.

+STOPCHEMTRAILS Fred true, but I think when it comes to protraction/retraction they are antagonists. serratus ant protracts while rhomboids retract scapulae. in fact some rowers have lengthened and weak serratus ant due to too much rowing

Mr Chris I have strong and active serratus anterior but I'm having problems to one shoulder (left one) due to a ipertonic scapula elevator! Very aching pain in my left shoulder but I discovered that if I massage muscles around the neck and the inside-superior border of my scapula where elevator scapula attaches my pain go away almost instantly... Can't explain that, it's a terrible ache that can last for days but I can temporarily fix easily with a tennis ball. I'm looking for a long-term fix. Maybe my trapezious are not strong enough cause all the years of following the advice "shoulder down and back"...
