PROPS NEEDED: 1 Chair (without armrests)

Don’t let the chair fool you. We use the chair to dissociate certain areas of the upper limbs to gather insight into how the targeted joints are moving without compensating. We also use it to mark passive end ranges and then we strengthen those ranges, building up our overall capacity and tolerance. We get into effective isometric training for the tissues of the forearms, elbows, and wrists, and we use passive end-range lift-offs in shoulder flexion, extension, and abduction. This one ends with a progressive series using variations for push-ups and triceps dips and an option to explore Halasana (plow pose) and/or a Sarvangasana (shoulder stand) at the end.

CAUTIONS: Wrist loading, Shoulder Loading, Ankle Loading, Knee Loading
