    Thumbs up Re: external rotation and lower trapezius

    Hi,

    As mentioned by the previous contributor rotator cuff has to be focused upon. Shoulder Stability training is a must. Stretching of pectoralis would help. Lats strengthening might help but avoid lat pull down during initial training, instead go for seated rowing. Strengthening of middle fibers of trapezius would help too.

    Regards,

    Ramakrishna.

    Re: external rotation and lower trapezius

    would dumbbell rows be a decent excercise, i think that face pulls have helped me out a little as when i do dumbbell rows i actualyl feel my scapular coming down and working a little more, but it sort of struggles my scapular feels like it moves down pretty jerky? is this because my lower traps stil need a bit more strengthening?
