Internal Rotation Perturbations

ShoulderShoulder Proprioception
Written By David Song

INTERNAL ROTATION PERTURBATIONS

This is a rotator cuff stability exercise that adds perturbations to train shoulder proprioception. Loop a strength band through a fraction plate of up to 2.5 lbs and wrap it around a stable object. From here grab the band with the arm closest to the anchor point and take a side step away from it. Keep the arm and elbow tucked to the side of your body with a 90 degree bend in the elbow. Grab the weight plate and pull on it to tense the band and let go. This will cause the band to shake, resist the movement with your arm and shoulder.

Muscles Involved:

  • Rotator Cuff

Related Conditions:

  • Rotator Cuff Tear

  • Biceps Tendinopathy / Biceps Tendinitis

  • Shoulder Impingement
