Hi. Mike Bronco here of Bronco's Gym with Holly Bronco. We're going to show you a shoulder complex. No weights involved whatsoever. This will help to condition your rotator cuff which obviously could be problematic in athletics. First thing we're going to do is take our hand straight down at our side right outside of our hip. Thumbs up okay? And we're going to raise up so that we're even with our shoulders. Right there and then back down. If I show you this from the side you could see I'm straight out and not to the front. Very important to open that up. We'll do 10 repetitions. Exhale on the way out. Eight, nine, ten. Now we're going to do the same thing to the front keeping the chest up high. Eye level. Exhale on the way out. This will get you. No weights. Okay now we're going to do the same thing to the side that we did before. I'm going to show it from the side again. Thumbs are facing in, rotating my hand and coming straight up to the side, okay. Tendency is to come forward. You want to come straight up to the side. So that's one, two, three, four, five. That burn? Six. Nice burn. Seven, eight. Twisting. Nine, ten. Okay one more. We're going to come to the front, thumbs out. We're going to come all the way across the body and cross. Back down to the front. Now we're going to cross in the other direction. Two, three, four. Rotator cuff's one of those areas that goes down on a lot of guys. Not just weekend warriors but
