PRONE PRESS SLIDER

This is a dynamic shoulder stability exercise that targets the internal rotators of the shoulder. Start by lying down on your stomach with your head supported by your forearm. Place your target arm’s hand on a sliding disc or hand towel and press into it to compress it against the floor. While maintaining the downward pressure, slide your hand above your head as far as you can tolerate. Then slide it back down so that your hand is roughly in line with your shoulder.
