Challenge yourself. Feed your body (and muscles the right food) and rest.
See you tomorrow for class.

The reverse plank forces your posterior chain to work against gravity in an unfamiliar orientation. Your glutes and hamstrings must generate tension working on long lever.
Meanwhile, your scapular stabilizers, particularly the lower trapezius and serratus anterior, must maintain active shoulder positioning, while your shoulder joint reaches its end range of extension.

Your abdominal muscles work isometrically to prevent arching, while your posterior deltoids and triceps create the pushing force to maintain elevation.

This exercise simultaneously develops integrated posterior chain strength and shoulder stability.

Why does an immobile scapula create shoulder pain?
To raise our arms high, the scapula needs to glide across the rib cage in a rotation-like motion.
This movement is primarily driven by the serratus anterior and opposed by the levator scapulae and rhomboid muscles.
The levator is a tonic muscle, meaning that if it's not exercised enough, it becomes overly tight. The rhomboids are generally content with this tightness because it makes their job easier.
Unfortunately, this compromises the movement of the scapula, and without it, our shoulder joint must operate in an exaggerated range of motion, which leads to pain.
