The rotator cuff is made up of 4 muscles. Individually, the muscles can either internally or externally 🔄 rotate the humerus. This is how we see most people train them in the gym and in rehab. But as a whole, the cuff’s true function is to stabilize the humeral head inside the socket. This keeps the humerus ⤵ depressed so that it doesn’t ride up into the subacromial space and cause early 💢 impingement of the tendons and bursa. When rehabbing or training the rotator cuff, this is the function that we want to 🎯 target in most cases. The goal is to keep the cuff active as you move the arm through space. This drill will do just that. Perform 10 to 15 reps per side as long as you can keep good technique. Tag a friend with shoulder pain and share the wealth!
