Neuromuscular rehab drill for certain people with stability/motor control dysfunction-related issues of the shoulders or neck: _ •Chest lies off the upper part of the bench to increase global cervicothoracic extension demand •Deep neck flexor activation (longus colli, rectus capitis; although I look like I rely a lot on my SCM & likely scalenes here for stability--no good) •Some degree of lower trapezius activity to encourage upward rotation of scapulae, •Incorporates shoulder external rotation and further scapulothoracic retraction/depression on the pull down portion #ClinicalAthlete #ClinicalAthleteProvider
