Top 3 Hockey Shoulder Mobility Strengthening Exercises

Last week we broke down our top 3 hip mobility strengthening exercises for hockey players, this week it’s all about bulletproofing those hockey shoulders! The focus on these exercises are to not only open up new mobility in the shouders but simultaneously strengthen your shoulders end range of motion. This will better prepare your shoulders to improve range of motion, strength, and increase injury resiliency!

Scap Pullups

These help maximize scapular stability while improving overhead range of motion and strength, usually two highly limited movements in hockey players. Focus on only moving up and down from the scaps and not bending your elbows as you pull.

 

Banded Row

A simple yet effective exercise to help understand scap retraction while strengthening the shoulder joint. Focus on pulling the band back by retracting your scapula and not just pulling with the arm.

Question Press

A more unorthodox exercise but incredible for building shoulder/wrist stability and full range of motion strength. Focus on gripping the kettlebell tight, fully extend the arm as you press and don’t let your back over arch.

All three of these exercises should be staples in your hockey shoulder mobility strengthening program! If you have any questions on form or would like to learn more great exercises to help with your hockey performance don’t hesitate to reach out! Always here to help!

    There is no perfect movement, just the right movement for you!

    The Importance of Body Positioning for Efficient Movement: Why 80/20 Works In the world of fitness, one common argument is that “movement is movement” meaning, there’s no “correct” way to move. The idea is that to be truly strong, you need to train all possible movement patterns. While this perspective has merit, I believe there’s…
