Pseudo ‘German-hang’
Shoulder-mobility (range-development)

THE WHAT
The ‘Pseudo German-hang’ is a simple, open kinetic-chain loaded-stretch which develops the strength & range of the shoulders in extension. Due to the standing & forward-folded position, it also elicits a strong stretch across the posterior-chain, namely along the lower-back and hamstrings. As this is not the main function of the tool, however, each practitioner should ensure that they take a stance (i.e. wider legs or slightly flexed knees, as outlined in the resource), to ensure that expressing maximal range in SHOULDER-EXTENSION remains the number one priority.
