PNF WALL ASSISTED LATISSIMUS DORSI STRETCH
This is a Peripheral Neuromuscular Facilitation stretch that uses a wall to help push your shoulder into deeper shoulder flexion. That by placing on hand on the wall in front of you. Bend forwards at the hips to raise the arm in front of you. Hold a stretch for 5-7 seconds. Then activate your shoulder muscles by pressing your hands down into the wall with maximum effort for 5-7 seconds. Relax and repeat as required.
