[00:00:00]If you're dealing with shoulder impingement, rounded posture, or constant trap tightness, your pec minor could be a big reason why. It's a small muscle that sits underneath your chest and attaches to the front of the shoulder blade at the coracoid process.

[00:00:11]When the pec minor gets tight and overworked, it pulls the shoulder blade into anterior tilt, that rolled forward shoulder position. That sets you up for impingement pain and crappy scapular stability, especially anytime you reach or press overhead. Here's how we start fixing it. We begin with wall angels.

[00:00:25]This helps open up the chest while activating the muscles that move and stabilize your shoulder blade, reversing that forward dump position. Then we add banded eyes to wake up your lower traps and improve shoulder blade control and teach you to move without shrugging into your neck and upper traps. Lastly, we use infinity hovers to move your shoulder blades through a full controlled range while your arms hover off the floor, building fine control and offloading pressure from the front of the shoulder. Train the muscles that fight anterior tilt, not the ones that just feel tight.
