  1. Love this guy #truth #healthbuilding #Antstrength. Shit works. Im still working on it, but its much better then before. And the last thing to fix before my biceps tendinitis in the shoulder is completely fixed. I've been focused on gaining mass so its been a juggle to focus on that and strengthening these three muscle groups, but I have noticed growth in all those areas, and look forward to getting them strong enough to where my bicep tendon can heal completely. It has healed and felt fine after doing these for a while my biggest problem is that they aren't strong enough YET cuz sometimes my form breaks down and I get intense and in the zone and struggle with not going for the gold , I need to keep my mind about me and keep great form 100% of the time, until I bring more strength to the 3 , then maybe I'll have a little more freedom riding WFO

  2. My osteopathy told me once it gets too easy keeping ur elbow in, move your elbow out and get a further rotation. Doing both together and two dumbbell movements too has healed my rotator cuffs amazing…. Has been 5 months …. And im neli 💯….. cant say im completely 💯 until i up my bench and get back to my max. Will find out next week.

  4. 1. Tuck elbow to side of body
    2. Keep shoulder blades retracted and don’t let shoulders round forward
    3. Position of shoulder blade. 2 muscles help position shoulder blade. Serratus anterior and lower trap. Train the 2 muscles. Serratus Anterior Exercise – plank plus (elbows in, palms up, hands and forearms out a little. Push body away from arms, which protracts shoulder blades.)
    Lower trap exercise – lower Half of Pullups. (Pull up into start of pull up, then dead hang. )
