Shoulder Disassociation conditions posterior shoulder musculature.Pump the arms firmly from the shoulders up and down, keeping them straight and fingers long just above hip bones.Advanced: Legs extended at 45 degrees (eyes and toes on same level).
Intermediate: Legs are long up towards the ceiling at 90 degrees and glued together.Beginner: Knees are directly above hips, legs are at a 90 degree angle hip width apart and parallel (“table top”).Starting Body Position: Supine (arms are always long and gaze always in to abdominals) Beware, this ‘warm up’ exercise will never get easy! It is an exercise that is perfected with practice as there are various modifications depending on your abilities, such as keeping the head down or lifted, or legs at tale top position or extended to a low diagonal. It requires that you coordinate your breath with the pulsing movement of the arms (inhale 5 counts, exhale 5 counts x 10 = 100) while engaging your core and extending your legs away from your body. The Hundred builds core strength, stamina, and coordination. This exercise is usually introduced at the beginning of a workout to help warm the body up as it really engages the abdominals and uses the breath to pump the oxygenated blood around the body, ready for the rest of the session!
In accordance to the previous post, a great exercise to combine core work and breathing technique is The Hundred.
