  • Why do rotator cuff rehab exercises never seem to work? Because most rotator cuff injuries, tendinitis and impingement problems are symptoms not the cause. A large part of the underlying problem is usually dysfunctional scapula movement & position … and it’s easy to fix. Here’s how to fix shoulder pain, tendinitis & impingement for good.

    I’m 3 years late but I hope you guys see this. I have been to orthopedist, chiropractor, gotten massages, done physical therapy and nothing has worked for years. Once I get these 2 simples stretches down and was doing them correctly my pain has literally completely vanished. It felt like a sack of pain in my shoulder blade that would never go away. Once I learned to use these muscles together in these stretches all my pain went away. Absolutely insane and i’m so thankful

First day back playing sport and my shoulder dislocated again causing a fracture of the upper humerus. I made a quick recovery relatively speaking but my ROM hasn't felt the same for a while no matter what exercises I've been doing. I'm going to try these and see how I get on. Thank you!

But in this wonderful United States of America, where you get two weeks vacation and 5 sick days a year, It's nearly impossible to heal.

    • @BodyFixExercises

      Thanks Rebecca. Yeah, it's essentially the same exercise, but it can be used as prevention and a fix so I thought I'd put it in there again as plenty will not have seen the other video. I actually designed the exercise. There's usually an initial improvement as the muscles are activated and start to work again. Then there is a second, slower improvement as the muscles strengthen. So stick with it! It's my fave.

I have tight painful 1st/2nd rib and also tight scalene muscles which find it hard to stretch. Would you mind doing a video on how to stretch these areas please? I feel so hopeless and just want to give up…years of physio doesn’t seem to help. I wish you are in UK so I can get treated. It’s so hard for me to find someone who is experienced like you. I’m just running out of options and just want to feel better and my shoulder pain is really affecting my life and mental health.

      Hey Anna. Thanks for the lovely message. Try these exercises. czcams.com/video/0zcNvVnKjCA/video.html
      They are for that higher area and exercise 2 will stretch your scalenes too.
      Also try massaging the muscles right UNDER your collar bone. Rub under your collar bone, or use a tennis ball to press in tender spots in that area. The pec major attaches in that spot and can affect the scalenes and ribs. I'll be doing a video on that area (related to AC joint pain) in a few weeks time. Hope that helps.

I'm very well aware of the mechanics of the shoulder and serratus anterior exercises one of my favorite for scapular stabilization. However, I really started noticing improvement when I started the other exercise for the lower traps. These exercises and someone else's video have helped me get rid of most of my pain and my painful arc in just a couple weeks.

      @yorkiepit Před 8 měsíci +3

      I was in the same boat.
      Before I found this video, I found a book about hanging from a pull up bar and that also worked wonders, as it creates space in the shoulder.
      That book is "Shoulder Pain? The Solution & Prevention, Revised & Expanded" by John M. Kirsch M.D., who is an orthopedic surgeon.
      Between the exercises in this Body Fix Exercises video and the hanging, my shoulder pain has almost entirely disappeared, though the tear damage itself will probably never heal.
      The position of bar hanging moves the damaged muscles safely behind the shoulder joint. You can do full or partial bodyweight, do 10 minutes of 15 to 30 seconds of hanging with a break in between. I use a workout timer app and use it to efficiently time this.
      Bar hanging pulls the bones and creates space. It will reverse the incorrect bone shape and positioning that has occurred, over time, the bones will regain the shape that they had when we were much younger.
      As soon as you're done bar hanging, that is the time to perform the exercises in this video and any other shoulder workout you wish to perform, because even when you're just starting with the hanging, it will create some temporary relief and you can do these exercises with less pressure on the injured muscles.
      This video is great, the bar hanging is great, the exercises my physical therapist gave me weren't so great, it was through CZcams that I found out about bar hanging therapy and also the Body Fix Exercises routine.

    I saw a guy demonstrating a similar version of these two exercises in a video years ago. They were the only exercises to completely fix my popping shoulders and right side shoulder impingement issues. About a month ago, the impingement came back with a vengeance. I’ve been looking for that particular video almost daily since. I was exceptionally pleased and didn’t need any convincing that the two exercises demonstrated in your video are the real “key” to fixing shoulder pain. You, my friend, deserve both a thumbs up and a subscription for your help. Thanks!

    After repair of ruptured Pec major, 8 mos ago, I’ve struggled to regain forward flexion (hand straight over head). Lots of PT, hundreds of hours of exercises and a couple steroid injections later brought me to this video. While only a couple days into the routine, I’m finally experiencing gain in ROM that I believe will be sustained and hopefully without bringing back shoulder pain! Perhaps more than anything it finally helped me identify how my movement was modified and really only “hinging” in the shoulder joint itself.
    I’m not a physio so my explanation may be confusing, but I’m very happy to have found your channel and this routine.
    Thank you so much!

    Something I have done as a control for the core when items like exercise 1 (and other that are similar) is to get a kettlebell and excercise band. I tie the band to the kettlebell and place it underneath my back, about in line with the belly button and have it tense enough whereby if I raise my abdominals/core and arch throughout the movement- the band slides out. By doing this I’ve now got a control to ensure I keep my core activated and in place.

    • @BodyFixExercises
      @BodyFixExercises  Před rokem +3

      I had a similar experience when I first did these exercises. I believe it's because the Lower Traps and Serratus Anterior can become underactive and unused. It's as if the brain forgets it should be using these muscles but then these exercises force you to use these muscles. The brain then goes "Oh yeah, I forgot about those muscles" and starts using them again. (Similar to "sleepy glutes") I had a 50% improvement within 5 days. The other 50% took 2-3 months because the muscles had to be strengthened and that takes time. So keep going!

    After 2 frozen shoulders, protruding scapula, then rotator cuff pinch I’ll try this. I’ve known for years I have some scoliosis. My sister had it bad, had a rod put in when she was little. Helped my rotator cuff by passive hanging then got that other frozen shoulder. Thank heavens it wasn’t as bad as the first but now I never really got my full range of motion back. I used to have one arm I could scratch my back but can’t now. It’s still unfreezing. It takes forever but it’s not possible to hang unless I do it one armed and hanging on even w hook grips is lessened. I’m going to try these for that scapula. Thanks. Cats 😅

    Coming back here to say… thank you so much man. These exercises are gold, and as I did 10 reps of 2nd exercise, my impingement pain was 90% gone already. I had a minor impingement but local physios didn’t tell me the lower traps correction and so I was worried.
    I learnt engaging my lower traps and serratus, and now I’m conscious of that throughout my workout too.
    Fast forward today, I have been progressing smoothly and hitting new weights on my compound lifts. These exercises are a gem and I can’t emphasise it enough.
    For the gym goers, the thing is that we focus on the big flashy muscles and that leads to imbalance. Imbalances between the big muscles and the smaller stabiliser muscles. I’d say focus more on body weight too like pushups and pullups/inverted rows, these are safer for the average joe. That’s my personal opinion tho. Cheers !
