The 'Trap Y-raise' (scapular stability)
RE-/PREHAB: Shoulders, scap & neck
•
59s
THE WHAT & HOW:
So named for the 'Y' shape made in the arms-extended raise position, the 'Trap Y-raise' is the bilateral brother to the 'Unilateral trap-3 raise'. Once familiarity with & muscular 'neural-drive' have been developed in the more isolated latter context, the former can be used effectively to the same ends in what is essentially a both a time-saving and more strength-oriented context. In the absence of previous experience, then the practitioner is STRONGLY advised to begin with the UNILATERAL variation.
