Been prescribing opposite leg one-legged RDL's to post-shoulder surgery clients since 1992 to affect/improve shoulder stiffness via their latisimus dorsi muscle-fascial connections. Here is some proof that you should consider this as well.http://www.jbiomech.com/article/S0021-9290%2812%2900696-3/abstract?elsca1=etoc&elsca2=email&elsca3=0021-9290_20130315_46_5&elsca4=elsevier

You know my standpoint on stretching:
Traditionally, stretching has been recommended as a means for reducing the risk of hamstring strains and as a treatment modality in rehabilitation programmes following hamstring injuries. Nevertheless, more recent evidence indicates towards possible disadvantagious effects of stretching; it may decrease hamstring concentric and eccentric strength and may thereby adversely affect H:Q ratios.

These findings support the hypothesis that static stretching affects the H:Q ratios and potentially increases the risk of hamstrings strains. Costa et al.; Scand J Med Sci Sports 23 (2013) 38-45.

Heading out to San Francisco this weekend for some R&R and a short meeting. Next week countdown to attend and present at the Northwest National Athletic Training Association convention in Boise, Idaho as well as the Northwest American College of Sports Medicine convention. Racking up those frequent flier miles. Hope I will see some of you out there!!

I love my job, but some days are more special than others. Consider this: female division I swimmer with 4 years of right shoulder pain and dysfunction. Three weeks after I see her she competes in her last PAC 12 event and this what she emailed me afterwards: "Guido, my last PAC 12 events were very successful last week, I got personal records in all of my individual events."
All I did was to restore her glenohumeral and scapulothoracic neutral and make her stiffer in that position. Do simple things salvageably well !! http://www.osubeavers.com/sports/w-swim/orst-w-swim-body.html
