Ive been seeing a physio at work for a shoulder injury,today she asked me to do various stretches and one of them was to touch the backs of my hands together above head without bending the elbows,only managed to get arms up to 10 past 10 position,she said that was very poor and i was muscle bound from going to the gym and most likely from overdeveloped upper traps. :smile: :mad:

She showed me how easily she could do it and said most people should be able to do it but she's only about 8 stone max.

Little test,can you just try and do this and post how far you can get.

As pic but backs of hands touching

Lord knows how you are going to cope without being able to do it - how do you get through the day? :biggrin:

Thats odd because my shoulders are pathetically genetically muscle bound to the point that my arms have to go over the bar when I squat, and I can't do a press behind my neck to save my life for fear of a severe tear, yet I can do that without too much struggle (traps squeeze but I can do it)

I see a deep tissue therapist at least once a month and that helps my flexability, but doing that makes my traps cuts off the circulation to my head, so I think no is the answer no. :wacko:
