The Importance of Scapular Control During Overhead Movement

Scapular control is a crucial aspect of achieving safe and effective overhead movement. Whether you’re an athlete, fitness enthusiast, or someone who enjoys daily physical activities, maintaining proper scapular control can significantly enhance your performance and prevent injuries.

1. **Improved Shoulder Mechanics**: The scapula, or shoulder blade, plays a vital role in the movement and stability of the shoulder joint. Proper control ensures that the shoulder mechanics are optimized, allowing for smoother and more efficient movement.

2. **Injury Prevention**: Without proper scapular control, the shoulder can become unstable, leading to a higher risk of injuries such as impingement, rotator cuff tears, and other shoulder-related issues. Strengthening the muscles around the scapula helps maintain stability and reduce the risk of these injuries.
