Hi! I use the "corkscrew the shoulder" cue a lot with my clients but recently I was thinking about the way it functions and I couldn't figure it out. Because when I corkscrew the shoulder I feel (of course) a lot of tension in my lats (and the rotator cuff is probably working hard as well). But...
I was reviewing the Tactical Pullup Standard:
I notice in my own Pullups that I'm lacking the "last 5%" to get my upper chest touching the bar on the top of the Pullup. As a regular deskworker the muscles in my back are probably to weak. Are there support exercise I can do, e.g. some kind of...
