Just to prove it isn't that simple some of the time I would like to demo (me as the subject) that injury prevention is much better than trying to pull splinters out of your backside and after last season I can firmly say - it isn't fun.
So as you can see from this video my lower traps actually need a good bit of work.
The scapular stabilises ok around the middle of the back, but the lower traps prevent the scapular from winging up.
This is not suprising as I often get a stinger a match and have had a history of neck problems. As you can imagine neuroligically things 'aint firing right' - technically speaking.
So I recommend this exercise - a scapula press-up. No equipment, a good variation on a press-up, can be performed as part of the warm up for your team and in the gym.
That and some Y-T-Ws and we should be better all round!
