How to Improve Your Shoulder Range of Motion (Stretches & Exercises)

[@E3Rehab]

Thanks for watching! What exercises are you going to try? Comment below! You can also find all these exercises in our blog - e3rehab.com/blog/shoulder-range-of-motion/

[@2008sevenstar]

@E3Rehab: My right hand external, internal, flexion and abduction is not happening like my left arm. Can it be cured with exercise? I am very stressed due to this problem. Please help me. Also I feel weakness in my right arm.

[@Ma21L]

What if you're a sprinter? I'm fast, but my arm range of motion isn't as good, in order for me to apply more power off the ground. For example, if look at a picture of Carl Lewis or Tyson Gay.. they have full range of motion in their sprint form. I'd like my arm range of motion to be equally as good. Do you know of any exercises I could do please??

[@ayushikeshare398]

Do you have e vedio on External Rotation specifically? It's been 8 months since my anterior shoulder dislocation situation, my external rotation is very limited (at level 1 as per your vedio) and it feels restricted. Other movements are good and recovering well ( at level 3 on most other movements)

Thank you!

[@WakeUp2024]

I dislocated my shoulder around 6 months back and I was looking for something that helps me progress... Therefore, I cannot be more thankful to you for this video/ information. It has everything that I need to know and to exercise... ❤

[@mandyandrews6083]

I have spent months trawling through You Tube videos trying to find exercises to help my shoulder injury. Here and there you find one or two exercises, but this is a complete programme. Easy to follow levels for everyone. This is seriously the best thing I have ever watched. I am diligently following along and progressing through the levels. My mental health was really suffering but after finding this I can honestly say YOU have shone a little light at the end of the tunnel. Sincerely thank you so so much😇

[@JoshuaRamon.]

Did you really achieve better range of motion?

[@gergovitari3839]

Just the video I was looking for! So well organized. Great examples. Logical. No BS. Love it!

[@resurgencetraining339]

Maybe the best video on shoulder health I’ve ever watched. Bravo my friend you’ve raised my bar for video quality thank you 🎉❤

[@paulabrady4313]

Informative, accurate, well demonstrated and explained. Thanks for covering us seniors reduced needs while still encouraging advancement. Had rt reverse shoulder and also gave tear on left untreated as yet. Viewed many videos. Yours was the best. Thanks for your help.

[@lafamillecarrington]

I have hurt both my shoulders over the years playing rugby, hockey and skiiing, but thought that I had managed to get good mobility back. Doing your tests showed that my left arm external rotation is much poorer than you demonstrate, so will definitely be working on that. Thanks.

[@tmarkovski]

Thanks, this was a very informative video and just what I needed to know to address my internal shoulder rotation.

[@E3Rehab]

Thank you!

[@patsyfarrell7971]

This is such a Godsend.. one year out from left rotator full tear, doing really good. But now my right is a problem MRI says small tear.. thank you very much!!

Thank you!

[@oldbrassman2157]

One of the very best videos I have seen on this important topic. I'm in my seventies, vegan, and in pretty decent shape. I have a few range of motion issues, but will employ all of these stretches and exercises. I'm confident I'll see some significant improvement within a few months. Thanks for posting this!

[@JoshuaRamon.]

Did you see improvements?

[@Maniasza1]

There are no words to express how grateful I am to have found this channel at all. I have calcific tendonitis and shoulder impingement. There has been no improvement for over three months. Visits at the a physiotherapist did not help. Zero. The injection only saved me from severe pain for 4 weeks. I was advised to have surgery. No rehabilitator or physiotherapist who is paid a lot of money will advise you on what this video contains. Bravo and many thanks. For examples, details, tips. After spending a few months searching on the Internet, I haven't found anything better on the Internet. After a week of exercises using this video, I feel an improvement in shoulder rotation and much less pain by about 50%!!! Finally, I can SLEEP and don't suffer. Incredible! Thanks again, and you can't imagine how MUCH you help people. I am so lucky to have found your channel. Thank you very much! You are my lifesaver!!♥♥♥

[@moondalastringart]

[@janecrawford5069]

Shoulder painful with limited range of motion from broken elbow AKA olecranon 11 weeks ago. Bone is healed but shoulder is not functioning properly making it painful to do hair and to sleep soundly. Finally decided today I need to focus on my shoulder. My hand and fingers still swell with the inability to write. Flexion, extension, supination, and pronation are all decreased significantly. I hope this video helps!😢

[@sierraden57]

I'm so glad to have found this video!...2 1/2 years ago I separated my left shoulder and had previously torn the rotator cuff group on the same shoulder. My range of motion is not good as is the strength of the shoulder. I've started working out again and really need to focus on my shoulders so this video is timely!...Thank you for your very well-done instructional video!

I lost my shoulder mobility last year from illness. I was sick for the last year and due to inability to move my arms I developed frozen shoulders. Your video has given me hope that through these exercises I can regain my range of motion. Thank you !

[@botrott]

Has this helped?

[@TheSeedsower107]

@@botrott I actually signed myself up for a membership at my comunity wellness center where they have a weight room , pool and classes you can go to. I started using the pool 3 days a week attending excercise classes . I did what I could and in 1 and a half months I regained my full range of motion. Now I am going to the pool 4 days a week focusing on strength training to rebuild the muscle tone I lost. For me this was the easiest most pain free enjoyable way to regain my range of motion and particularly heal my frozen shoulder. I found consistent movement was the key to it all. I hope this is helpful to you and that you get well soon.

My right scapula is so winged that it's super uncomfortable to perform external rotation on the floor (90° angle between the upper arm and the body). It sucks. 🙄

[@tc-3]

​@@matyasmatejka4242 Hello! My scapula is much better now, four months later. I have to be honest and say that these exercises didn't help me much. Not saying they are a waste of time. However, I've noticed the biggest progress after incorporating Tim Anderson's Original Strength movements into my routine. I'm not their spokesperson or affiliated with them in any way, but their approach to movement has been short of life-changing for me. I suggest you give Original Strength a try, especially rocking and crawling movements. There are many free videos on their channel. Again, I don't want to diminish E3's great contribution to the world of fitness and physiotherapy, just stating what worked best for me. Take care and good luck!

Need to improve my shoulder flexion for handstands, this seems like some good stretches for it

[@angel_machariel]

I began fitness at the age of 56. I'm lucky I still can. But lack of shoulder mobility due on sedentary lifestyle "burns" my shoulders out way too fast during lifting. The exercises in this video appear to nicely address various range of motions I have little bit of trouble with. I've saved this video (downloaded) because of of continuous internet scrubbing these days. What I like the most is simplicity and practicality. I've seen other shoulder-related videos, but they are way too complex as the shoulders is a complex study - I have noticed. But I don't have to understand it all, as long as the exercises are responsible and reasonable I'm happy.

[@MrDaveinnocent]

I have hope now. I have both bad flexion and bad external rotation. I've tried opening my shoulder on a wall or box but it doesn't really help. These give me hope seriously. My goal is to learn the handstand and eventually do hand stand push ups but I'm blocked by my shoulders. My thoracic rotation on my left side is very painful too but on the right I have no issue.

Would a 90º internal rotation (equivalent to external one) will be ever needed or recommendable? I'm wondering if achieving a greater range of motion and power in both external/internal rotation will help me to recover from recurrent shoulder pain related to impingment and biceps tendonitis.
