Today, Human 2.0 coach Dan Jones goes over a variety of shoulder stretches to help you develop flexibility and mobility in the upper body.

These exercises will take about half an hour, and are ideal to do as recovery AFTER any sort of workout - running, conditioning of any kind, weight or strength training, etc. Or you can do these shoulder stretches all on their own just for the upper body flexibility training as well, but make sure to do a little warm up for at least five minutes first to so that the muscles are warm. The best part about this shoulder stretches workout? It doesn't involve any gym equipment so it's very easy to do almost anywhere - a great home workout.
Stretches are an important part of every person's fitness toolbox. Incorporating stretching exercises into your programming is key for injury prevention and better health.
When doing any kind of stretch (including these shoulder stretches or hip, ankle or back stretches) - to make some kind of lasting change - it's best to hold each stretch for a minimum for 2 minutes, with a discomfort level on a scale of one to 10 being somewhere around a 6 to 8. To make a change, you need to get uncomfortable.
Having good shoulder flexibility and mobility is key to functional fitness. You want your body to be as prepared as possible whenever it is put in an awkward position. Doing these exercises for the shoulders is a great way to prepare for that.
Incorporate these shoulder stretches (exercises for the shoulders) into your fitness routine today. Remember to always use good form and to practice mindfulness and intention to get the full benefit.
