What's your favourite rotator cuff movement?

[@carsonbrown8107]

Tom Merrick not necessarily directly rotator cuff but I find wall angels great for overall shoulder/upper back mobility!

[@LeonidasKaragiannis]

Truly love the ring face pull because it can be loaded virtually infinitely and will help get a mind muscle connection with the rotator cuff more than any other exercise (that I've tried)

[@DidierPilon]

[@Ramazan448]

Tom Merrick Are these excercises good for shoulder impingement? If not, Can you please give some advice for shoulder impingment? Thank you!

[@ohhiguy]

I like these kind of videos. Love it that you gave impatient people the time code to jump ahead. Fools not to understand the details. Good job on giving them a choice. It is always good business to give people choices. They need to feel confortable. Hope all is going good with your coaching. Great job as always.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Keeps everyone happy. Thanks Guy, everything is great. Hope the same with you :)

[@abhishekchauhan7857]

Great informative video again Tom👍 Can you pls guide us and upload prehab/rehab video for the post-surgical repair of Achilles tendon injury.

[@gerrykarnish]

Love this! Just what I needed. Thanks!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Great Gerry :)

[@hansimeier6587]

Great video! Love your structured approach, including mentioning your sources and the table of content like stuff. I save the link to videos and use them later as reference when I am actually doing the excercises. In this way I find the description of the excercise easy and do not have to repeat the theory. But don't get me wrong: I really like your explanations of the why of an excercise. Some questions for my better understanding: I appreciate more and more training with resistance bands for strength, mobility, flexibility, stability and even endurance. If I want to train for strength/muscle I would imagine to go heavy and choose the resistance generally quite strong. For the other stuff I would choose much less resistance in most cases. But how can I determine the right resistance for my purpose? You said you use a light resistance band for this excercise. Why not heavy? Aren't you training muscles and then heavy is better? If I would like to buy resistance band (s), which resistance (s) would you recommend? Or to start with: what is the resistance in kg/pounds you use in this video? I am not living in the UK, though it might not be convenient for me to buy the products you recommend. Therefore I am asking you for the additional informations. Thanks in advance. And please more of this kind of videos.😀

[@peterhoatson]

Just started shoulder work and the Cuban press feels good. Really enjoy your breezy style, all very informative and helpful, thank you! (also enjoy your wandering dog in the background 😀)

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Hope it helps your training Peter :)

[@jeffm5099]

Hi Tom, really appreciate the free content. I never hear you mention cardio or discuss cardiovascular conditioning, I may have missed it, but do you do any cardiovascular exercise?

[@JuanitoLima13]

Thanks foranother great video, I’m on the middle of my right shoulder rehab and this video is right in time!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

hope it helps

[@oriontousif3603]

Nice man. I’ve had shoulder injuries for years and watches this video for warm ups this morning.. great job man and thank you!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

I hope it helps good sir :)

[@fekherfekih4223]

Thank you, loved it!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks Fekher

[@ElSolteroCrew]

Nice man, love your videos ! :)

[@tc-3]

Once again, great video! I ALWAYS make sure to warm up my shoulder before a workout, but I somehow managed to tweak my rotator cuff muscle during a lecture at uni earlier today. I was kind of stretching to relieve stiffness from sitting the whole god damn day and I heard a pop... great.

[@totallyraw1313]

Thanks for the video, Tom. Can you please do a video on how to treat latissimus dorsi insertion pain/latissimus dorsi tendinopathy?

[@jordanmacqueen6056]

Thank you

[@robertjoycetraining3126]

Quality. Not seen the drawing sword, will be trying that tomorrow!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks Rob, it's great for HS work

[@johnhagebeuk8]

Very helpfull i have weak shoulders and this is what i was looking for thanks Tom 👍🏻

[@BodyweightWarrior]

definitely a good one to do

[@gwennhadu906]

Face pull is great aswell!

[@mariamllersrensen6572]

Great video Tom. 💪🏻 i like to do cuban rotations...

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Awesome Maria, they're great

[@MuEnViFitness]

Awesome and I bet it is gonna help tons of people

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Thanks, I hope so :)

[@janrump6766]

I always have shoulder pain (i think rotator cuff cause i feel its inside, not really at a muscle, but rather a joint) when doing thinks like hanging L sit hold, and hanging knee raises. At the point where I release the tention (when the exercise is done) i feel the most pain, but i perform these in good form, with active retracted shoulders. Should i do the exercises in this video? And should i work on my shoulder mobility?

[@DidierPilon]

Great video once again. I have tons of requests: ankle prehab, scapula winging, bedtime relaxation stretching, and so many more. Ill sign on Patreon, but if you need inspiration, let me know.

[@4lchEmi]

D Pilon awesome suggestions!

[@SirWetBiscuit]

Is it just me, or was everything in the background of the video shaking a bunch?

[@craig00]

SirWetBiscuit yes. I’m getting dizzy just watching it

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Yeah, lens had a funny 5 minutes...

[@gdtcertification4953]

@@BodyweightWarrior We all had tightness in our rotator cuff causing clicks and pops of the shoulder joint. That was my case.... But after performing these stretches, I build mobility & flexibility in my shoulders and now I am back to full strength. You can find these stretches in this article : therehabboy.blogspot.com/2021/07/best-rotator-cuff-exercises-7-easy.html

[@pfodtakem9536]

Hey Tom, I'm just starting bwf and I feel a lot of pressure on my left shoulder (the one I injured a year ago just by hanging...) when I do scapular pulls, should I do these instead? Or add these? Or just passive hang? I'm not overweight, I'm just weak and I seem to get quickly injured on everything that's on my left side. That's weird though because I can hold myself up on parallel bars with no discomfort. Thank you for everything you do, that's very helpful

[@bouakazichemsedine5672]

Ohh i was waiting for this PREHAB video Because Of My left Shoulder injury :/ Thanks a lot

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Ah good to know, I hope it helps :)

[@CALISLIMSHORTS]

Can we do this before every workout? Like add it in the warmup mon -sat?

[@jackoneill2729]

Are those two exercises really enough to rehab the shoulders?

[@fatihakhan4381]

Which exercise is specific for lovator scapula because i have a problem right this point. And i always warm up with rotator scapula exercieses.

[@atulshenoy6970]

I used to do these. But, will mind the cues from today, thanks :)

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Already on it Atul

[@ironmight4334]

On a rest day, would you recommend Pre-hab full body workout with resistance bands, specifically after training with calisthenic/body weight exercises during the week?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Yeah prehab work is a good option on rest days, you don't need a band as it can jsut be simple stuff :)

[@giovanireis3393]

Tom, in the warm-up I should do some rotator cuff exercises or should be done at the end of the workout or on a day that I do not train. Thank you for your attention and I'm sorry for my English.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Useful definitely in a warm-up but avoid any sort of fatigue or failure. Conditioning is best done at the end :)

[@desnebula5699]

My shoulder keeps popping from a torn rotator cuff. Do you think I need surgery?

[@mww558]

Hi Tom, when will you be getting new stock on the light weight resistance bands? Cheers Matt

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Matthew williamson working on it currently

[@yougugu123]

I like to perform full rom wall Angels - in my opinion, done correctly, it strengthens the external rotators far better than exercises with resistance bands, as it trains your mobility and displays one's weak areas far better. I.e. It seems to me you are compensating the move in the end range with bending in your wrist? Nevertheless, awesome video and tutorial, as always Greetings!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Wall angels are another great option and +1 for posture too. In terms of form, possibly depends on how far you want to analyse :)

[@danichatin]

Man, I have been having trouble with getting fully flexed knees and the right one got swollen (a bit of the synobial liquid). Some knee prehab, maintenance? maybe balance work?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Hmm tough one, would highly recommend seeing a physio :)

[@danichatin]

Tom Merrick I know! I went already but not much change! He said that I should have not squated bellow 90° when doing squats because there is too much pressure added to the knee. Anyway, thanks for your answer and you info! Greetings from Spain! Keep it up!

[@elyasafaloni8925]

Why not challenging the internal rotetors? I know you will probably answer that because they are often been used, but they *never* been used as a prime movers, reducing their efficency at stabilizing the shoulder. *All 4 parts of the rotetor cuff function to stabilize the shoulder, not only 3...*

[@BodyweightWarrior]

The reason is that most injuries will be to the external rotator cuffs due to the nature of bodyweight training and the fact they're usually weaker. Internal will get trained in a lot of other movements such as push ups :)

[@elyasafaloni8925]

But the fact that the 3 ext.rotetors muscles are weak always correlate to tear? I thought that its because of unsafe movement stradegies which put those muscle too near to the shoulder bones...

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Weakness definitely contributes to the risk of injury among many other factors. Strengthening through full ROM with these sort of movements will reduce that risk :)

[@laser9259]

The exercises performed in wrong forms are hilarious XD

[@solonkaragiannis2907]

How about shoulder pain when overhead movements come in? Should I perform these exercises to rehab or not?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

FitnessFAQs recently uploaded a good video :)

[@solonkaragiannis2907]

Tom Merrick OK thank you very much for the reply, I will go and check it out! 😉

[@SpudKai]

Hey anyone know some good resistance bands that will ship to usa? Thanks. Idk if his on his site do

[@EA-ps4wc]

WODfitters are good

[@Rezires]

Love the vid tom really, what's your opinion on cuban rotation on the TRX or Rings, and combine it with a kind of high facepull?

[@sulezraz]

1:56

[@ak2010utube]

Your channel is a God send! Btw I tried to order the resistance band but the FRIDAY code doesn't work. May I suggest taking that down if its no longer 'valid' Thanks for the awesome videos!

[@BodyweightWarrior]

ak2010utube thanks dude! It was just on that Black Friday. It’s only mentioned in one video on Black Friday so presumed it was obvious :)

[@FiliP-rb3qk]

Can you do one on rehabing ?

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Possibly in a future video :)

[@Delta3angle]

I actually really don't like bands for rc work. When it gets heavy it's hard to keep good form and you can't really scale it.

[@BodyweightWarrior]

Understand completely where you're coming from but you can scale and track to a certain degree. I think simply for the options/angles it provides it's a great option :)
