Mobility "S" Stretch

What is the Mobility "S" Stretch (as seen in the "Stronger Shoulders" DVD)
The Mobility "S" stretch is performed using a dowel and firmly planting your feet to the floor. To begin, hold the dowel in front of the body so that the right hand is pointing in the 1 o'clock position. To execute, bring right hand in reverse towards your left ear. As the dowel is shifting, bring your left arm towards the body slightly and then up in front. As the dowel clears the head, your left arm should raise above to the left side of your head. The motion should look like a figure eight performed in all planes of motion.
This drill is excellent for warming-up the shoulder joint and engaging the core during such movements. It mentally prepares the joints to work in unison and enhances movement to ready for external loads (weights).
This warm-up drill is featured in the "Stronger Shoulders DVD" available through www.standAPARTfitness.com.
