Upper body feeling a little weak? Try this 4-move workout as a warm-up or when your shoulders need a little TLC.
Start in high plank position with your shoulders stacked directly above your wrists, legs extended behind you hip-distance apart, and core and glutes engaged.
Tap your left hand to your right shoulder while firing your core and glutes to keep your hips as still as possible. Try not to rock from side to side. When you bring your arm off the mat, the muscles in the shoulder of your opposite arm have to really fire to keep your body stable, says Fagan. Your core gets an added bonus here too.Stand with feet shoulder-width apart. With your core engaged, hinge forward slightly, keeping a slight bend in your knees.
Bring your arms up straight, keeping them in line with your shoulders. This is the I-part of the exercise. Bring your arms down. Bring your arms up straight and out at a 45-degree angle. This is the Y-part of the exercise. Bring your arms down. Bring your arms directly out to the sides, bringing your shoulder blades together. This is the T-part of the exercise. Bring your arms down. This is 1 rep.These moves work the serratus anterior as well as the lower trapezius—muscles that tend to be underdeveloped, says Fagan.
