Dealing with shoulder impingement? It often happens when a restricted rib cage limits scapula movement, causing the humerus to overcompensate. Instead of stretching your traps or using bands, focus on decompressing your spine for real relief! 💪

1️⃣ Grab a chair and a foam roll. Sit down, place the foam roll between your legs, and relax your spine. Breathe with me: exhale through your rib cage, inhale into your upper back. Hold this for 2 minutes. Feel the stretch? 🧘‍♂️

2️⃣ Next, hop on all fours. Exhale through your lower rib cage, soften those elbows, and inhale into your upper back. Can you feel the difference? 🌬️

3️⃣ Finally, try the Lv Xiaojun side raise to activate the muscles around your scapula. 💪
