Release Those Tight Lats | Trevor Bachmeyer | SmashweRx

🎩 Release those tight lats, and get your overhead mobility back.
.
⭐️The lats are in the category of muscles you want to be ‘awesome’ because they give you that V taper and make it look like you can go hang gliding on a windy day.
.
💨The issue comes when they tighten up. They attach on the humerus (upper arm bone) and rotate the arm inward. So tight lats are going to reduce, if not eliminate, your overhead position.
.
🌪Short tight lats are the culprit in so many back, chest and shoulder issues, it’s a wonder that they aren’t taken care of more often.
.
🌊If you want great pliability, start by releasing you lats, like this.
.
❄️Then to lengthen to tissue, work through the PNF drill 10-15 times.
.
⛄️Pro Tip: Be sure to trap the belly of the lat between the two lacrosse balls and then really lean into it while you’re raising and lowering your arm.
