To increase your shoulder external rotation range, focus on consistent stretching and strengthening exercises that promote flexibility and mobility.

Here's a breakdown of how to improve your shoulder external rotation, drawing from the provided video description:

• Wall Slides: This exercise uses the wall to help guide your movement and ensure proper form.

  1. Stand with your back against a wall.
  2. Bend your knees slightly toward your chest.
  3. Position your elbows and wrists against the wall.
  4. Slowly slide your arms up the wall as high as comfortably possible, maintaining contact with the wall and keeping your low back pressed against it. This encourages external rotation.

This exercise helps improve your shoulder external rotation by promoting shoulder mobility while encouraging correct posture and form. Consistency and proper form are key to seeing improvements in your range of motion.
