- push and extend the arms while engaging your chest, try to lockout and depress the shoulders

Dips

Set up cables at about shoulder height.

Take a wide open stance and Lean forward.  Push the cables using the pecs and stabilizing the shoulders back.

Cable Chest Press

Take a wide stance for balance. Shoulder blades should pull back and together to engage the chest as you lower down.  You do not want your upper back rounded so keep attention forward and br  open the chest to meet the ball

*If you don’t have a Med ball then do a narrow positioned Pushup from a bench

Med Ball Pushup

Cable Press / Med Ball Pushup

This is an amazing exercise for shoulder health and core stability all at the same time. 

Setup in half kneeling position at the length of the barbell( if right knee is down the right hand will push the weight ) 

- With your elbow slightly in front of you Press the end of the barbell up
- Reach full extension at the top, focus on using the Serratus muscles in the rib cage to pull the shoulder blade
- Lower with control back to starting position

- be powerful on the way up but slow 4 seconds down.
- focus on not side bending or over twisting the spine to overcompensate. Stay square and work the core.
