Why is scapular mobility
important? Scapular mobility is important because the scapula should be
pliable and not "tight". Causes of a tight scapula are injury, rotator
cuff surgery, trauma, poor posture. All of these situations affect the
ability of the scapula to upwardly rotate on the thorax.
Muscularly,
there is a force couple, where two or more muscles together cause
upward rotation of the scapula--these include the trapezius(specifically
the low trapezius) mid trapezius, and serratus anterior. How do you
strengthen the low trapezius and Serratus Anterior?
