1. Teres Minor External Rotation
How to do it: Step 1: Pin your upper arm against your side. This is your base position. Step 2: Externally rotate your forearm outward against a force. This targets the teres minor, a key rotator cuff muscle. Equipment: Use a resistance band while standing, or a small weight while lying on your side. Always start with light resistance and gradually increase as strength improves. Keep the upper arm tucked the entire time.
Why it helps: Strengthens a key rotator cuff muscle to improve shoulder stability and reduce impingement.
