Thoracic Mobilization

THORACIC ROLLING

Works muscles of back. Spend most of rolling time on thoracic (mid back), not lower back or up on neck. Support head with hands. Lift butt and roll back and forth.

SCAPULAR STABILIZATION

These are done with exercise band or tubing. I can give you one if you don’t have any to work with. There are three exercises: Scap squeeze, shoulder shrugs, and the low row. 10 x’s each/ 3 sets.

PUSH UPS-MEN

Push ups should be done daily. Start on knees and work up, if possible. Do as many as possible. Great for back, chest and GREAT for posture.

PUSH UPS-WOMEN

see above

THORACIC STRETCH

These stretches can also be done standing. Try three different rotation degrees on each side. Don’t jerk your head. Breath during stretches. Mobilization of the thoracic spine is a key ingredient to success in golf.
