KNEELING THORACIC EXTENSION

This is an extension based thoracic mobility exercise. Thoracic extension is typically required in any overhead sports such as Tennis, Volleyball, or Basketball. Occupations such as Mechanics, Chefs, and Bar Tenders are also professions that frequently do overhead arm activities. Thoracic Extension is also required in activities like the Squat to ensure proper depth is acquired during the movement.
