Coaches Corner: *Make sure you maintain a neutral spine. Increased thoracic mobility into extension has to be fostered. A more naturally extended thoracic spine is a “taller” spine that allows for a better “table” for the head and neck to function on, and better scapular positioning in retraction. This, in turn, helps the scapular stabilizers do their job more effectively, decreasing the chance of assuming a rounded shoulder position, especially as the implements get heavier.]]>
