Overhead Postition First Rib Mobility WOD

June 20, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Kelly Starrett shows another creative way to improve your overhead position.

Tools:

  • strap / rubber band
  • lacrosse ball
  • weight
  • something to hang from

Lay a strap over a lacrosse ball and have it push the ball into the first rib area / inside of your shoulder, all while hanging from a bar.

I just tried this. Works great with one of those green (wider) rubber bands. That way you can put the band around your knee/ foot and adjust pressure. Thanks Kelly.

Check out more drills on Mobility 101.

      In the future try to provide some value in your comments. I’ll just leave this one posted here so others can see what is not welcome here.

          No problem, we’ve all been there.
