⚾️ Baseball Weight Room Tip: Reach to Improve ⚾️ Baseball Weight Room Tip: Reach to Improve Your Rows
_
🤔 Classic weight room exercises like the bench press, deadlifts, and farmers carries call for the shoulders to be pinned down and back to create more stability and get larger muscles like the lats involved in the lift. 
_
This is great when your arms are by your side, but can become problematic for the baseball athlete because success in their sport is largely determined by how the shoulder functions overhead. 
_
Continually feeding into the down and back pattern in the weight room can cause an athlete to have trouble properly moving the shoulder blade and shoulder joint overhead and can have implications on both health and performance.
 _
👊One way we work on improving this at CDSF is by coaching an athlete to reach out in front during rowing exercises. By doing so we're keeping the structures of the shoulder joint healthy in overhead athletes and setting them up for success on the field by allowing their bodies to get into positions that will improve performance.
