#Core Stability Shoulder Taps

Exercise Spotlight: Plank Shoulder Taps! Plank shoulder taps are a killer core exercise that also build shoulder stability and overall body control. If you’re looking to level up your planks and challenge your stability, this one’s for you! How to Do Plank Shoulder Taps: 1️⃣ Start in a high plank position—hands directly under your shoulders, core engaged, and feet hip-width apart (wider stance for more stability, narrower for more challenge). 2️⃣ Keeping your hips and torso as stable as possible, lift one hand and tap the opposite shoulder. 3️⃣ Place your hand back down and repeat on the other side. 4️⃣ Continue alternating for the desired number of reps or time. Key Tips for Proper Form: ✔️ Keep your core tight—imagine pulling your belly button toward your spine. ✔️ Minimize hip movement—the goal is to resist rotation and stay as still as possible. ✔️ Control the movement—slow and steady is more effective than rushing through reps. ✔️ Adjust your stance—a wider stance makes it easier; a narrower stance makes it harder. Why You Should Do This Exercise: 🔥 Strengthens your core and improves anti-rotational stability. 🔥 Works your shoulders, arms, and even your glutes! 🔥 Helps build control and balance, which translates to better overall movement patterns. 🔥 No equipment needed—perfect for home or gym workouts!

SHOULDER TAPS ❌ I'm sorry to say but I see so many people doing these wrong - and if you've not been told how to do them properly, then I don't blame you.⁣ ⁣ Shoulder taps done properly are VERY tough - They will have you SHAKING in seconds.⁣ ⁣ So, what should you be aiming for when performing shoulder taps?⁣ ⁣ - Core TIGHT and SOLID⁣ - Hips to stay pointing the floor⁣ - Try to keep your body still as possible⁣ - Do not sway from side to side⁣ - Back and neck in a straight line⁣ - Every part of your body is ENGAGED!⁣ ⁣ Guys, as always, start with regressed options until you nail the form before moving upward. You'll actually develop strength way better, rather than attempting the full movement incorrectly, and potentially resulting in an injury. ⁣ ⁣ To practice shoulder taps, start on your knees - and once you master the art of not swinging around like a wild wo/man, then progress into your full plank.⁣ ⁣ You should also be practicing planks to develop strength in your core and shoulders before progressing to these bad boys.⁣ ⁣ Remember, it's not always about the amount of reps we do - but the quality in which we perform them in. BOSH!⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #form #incorrectform #formtechnique #bodyweighttechnique #bodyweightform #formoverreps #shouldertaps #shouldtapstechnique #workoutinspo #beginnersworkout #strengthbuilding #coretechnique

➖SHOULDER STABILITY➖ • 💥 Featured is a series of movements requiring dynamic shoulder (and core) stability within both the closed and open kinetic chain. 🔑 The shoulder joint is unique and requires a degree of both mobility and stability for this joint to function optimally and feel good - as too much of one side of the spectrum can lead to limitations and ultimately a biomechanical breakdown from compensation in other areas of the kinetic chain. • 💡 Short-term - usually no problem and we can get by with the compensations, but with time as we add-in higher volume, heavier loads, a mix of power and explosive movements, etc - our body’s surrounding areas is only going to be able to support so much until the movement become painful to perform properly. • ⚡️ Getting the ‘best-bang-for-your-buck’ is often key in training / rehab - as limited time allotment from both an athlete and gen pop standpoint is going to force us to have to choose the best movements to accomplish the goals we want to for a given session - so in saying so, shoulder and core stability often go perfectly hand-in-hand as demonstrated throughout movements here. • 1️⃣ Half-Kneeling Bottoms-Up Press + Anti-Internal Rotation Band Pull 2️⃣ Offset Overhead Suspended Weight Marches 3️⃣ Resisted Closed Chain Protraction 4️⃣ Mini Band Flexion Pulses 5️⃣ Single-Arm Eccentric-Focused Offset Push-Ups 6️⃣ Dolphin Press 7️⃣ Mini Band Steering Wheels 8️⃣ Stir the Pot • ▫️Shirt/Shorts : @tenthousand.cc [Code: COLLS] 👟 Shoes: @vivobarefoot [Code: DRCOLLS] 🔹Bands: @peaklabs__ [DC: DrColls] • 🛠 Questions about training, programming, mobility, recovery or implementation of training principles, feel free to shoot me a message 📲
