The "butterfly shoulder" refers to a shoulder mobility exercise where the individual retracts their shoulder blades and then rotates their arms in a circular motion, resembling the flapping of a butterfly's wings.
How to Perform the Butterfly Shoulder Exercise:
Based on the provided YouTube video excerpt, here's how to perform the exercise:
- Lie prone (face down) on the floor.
- Place your hands on your head.
- Engage your shoulder blades by lifting your elbows off the ground, retracting your shoulder blades (squeezing them together).
- Allow your hands to travel in a large circular motion around your body, continuing the rotation.
This exercise aims to improve shoulder mobility and engage the muscles around the shoulder blades.
