Description:
  1. Standing upright with neutral Spine posture and Trainer standing behind client.
  2. Trainer locates the inferior angle of the client's scapula by placing thumb along the medial border and fingers along the lateral border.
  3. Without coaching client is asked to abduct the humerus while completing a W to I position shoulder press.
  4. The trainer will note when the client initiates upward rotation of the inferior angle of the scapula.
  5. The trainer will coach the client to engage appropriate scapular control muscles such that upward and downward rotation of the scapula occurs in sync with shoulder abduction movements (i.e. not too early or late).  Scapular retraction exercises are often required to help re-establish good neutral mechanics/motor control.  Movement should be slow and controlled.
