@therotationalathletedoc: Every stroke cycle asks your shoulder to be mobile AND stable at end range, thousands of times a session. Most swimmers train mobility and skip the stability half that’s the gap that turns into impingement. 3 movements I use with overhead athletes to close it: 🔹 Med ball pull throughs teaches deceleration control at end range 🔹 90/90 IR builds rotator cuff strength in the exact position your stroke loads 🔹 Push-up position banded pull through trains scapular stability under a closed-chain load These aren’t a cure. They’re the missing piece most swim programs skip. Save this for your next dryland session. Drop “SWIM” and I’ll send you the full progression. 🏊
