#811: The shoulder with Milos Pesic

InnerFight
About this episode

In this episode, we explore the importance of shoulder health in daily life and physical activity. Our guest, Milos Pesic, shares insights on common causes of shoulder pain and provides practical solutions. We discuss the impact of poor posture and sedentary lifestyles on shoulder function, highlighting the need for mobility, stability, and strength.

 

Highlights

 

·     Importance of the Shoulder: The shoulder's 360-degree range of motion is affected by modern habits like sitting and driving, leading to imbalances and potential damage.

 

·     Common Causes of Shoulder Pain: Lack of mobility and sedentary habits contribute to shoulder pain. Internally rotated shoulders from extended sitting can exacerbate issues.

 

·     Solutions for Shoulder Health: Developing a neuromuscular connection between the brain and shoulder muscles is crucial.

 

Shoulder health plays a significant role in overall well-being. By understanding common causes of shoulder pain and implementing simple exercises, individuals can protect and enhance shoulder function. Improving posture and establishing a strong mind-muscle connection are essential steps in maintaining optimal shoulder health.
