okay all you hear is that stretching takes time and patients... bla bla im impatient i like to see results.

well alot of people have really stiff shoulders, i mean how often do you really stretch out your shoulder joints. do you even know how? IL TELL YOU HOW.

take a bar. a strong light bar doesn't matter how thick or whatever.

1.put your hands wide apart and keep your arms STRAIGHT
2.while keeping your arms straight.. move the bar out infront of you, and then up and over your head
3. now this is where the dislocate part comes in... SLOWLY bring the bar behind your back WITHOUT bending your arms

the better shoulder flexibility you have the closer you will be able to put your hands together on the bar.

do it slow. and controlled. no JERKING or anything like that.


i've been doing this excercise for a month. and decreased the distance between my hands by over a foot and a half.

the increase in shoulder ROM allows me to land standing backflip 360's easily'
when before i made my bar, they were struggled and often bailed.

i suggest you get a marker and mark your distance every day, and push yourself a little beyond the day before

also the #1 problem with most people BHS is shoulder flexibility. not back flexibility.

get to it !



 

a standing full yes, and people of all flexibilities can do this, you just start with super wide grip. there is no actual dislocation, thats just what the move is called.. im searching for a GIF exampler or something.

I know that I for one cannot get a bar past my head with a wide-grip (or even narrow grip) unless I press it against a vertical pole to force it back.  not everyone's shoulder flexibility is as poor as mine, of course, but a lot of men do NOT have very good shoulder flexibility.

I was just mentioning.  How can I misunderstand when you showed a video?  I'm just telling you that most people cannot do that.  At BEST, just slightly behind their head.

Dislocates are not the same as dislocating your shoulder. I'm not sure where the name of the exercise comes from, but I thought the same thing the first time I read about them.

It's basically just another way to stretch the shoulders, and it increases range of motion over time.

how can that possibly be, you MUST be doing something wrong, or your making your grip to narrow. when your arms are at full armspan the entire move only requires your hands to make a little tiny circle. as your grip narrows the circle becomes bigger and bigger.


Edit: this move is used to rehabilitate people who have sustained shoulder injuries. obviously there range of motion is going to be rediculously limited from an injury, and they still manage just fine. i am in no way saying your unintelligent i read your post about chimp armies and whatnot. your obviously a smart kid, but on this one issue i think your a little mis guided.

im talking bout doing exactly what the guy in the video is doing, except with your arms as far apart as they can go. if you cant do that move, then something is reeeeally broken inside your body

this is going nowhere fast, i guess il have to post a video of exactly what i'm talking about because you don't seem to get how easy this stretch is when done correctly. it doesn't take any sort of contortion or any sort of flexibility. if you can put your arms out to each side of you, then you can do this stretch!
