#132 - Building Better Strength Overhead Through Understanding Shoulder Anatomy And Function

In today's Iron Sights podcast, I'm joined by Cece and Ryan to discuss strategies for building greater overhead strength, particularly coming from the shoulders. We cover a range of topics, including shoulder mechanics, anatomy, factors limiting overhead strength, and effective solutions. We also talk about specific exercises, movement patterns, what to avoid, and how to enhance shoulder training without causing harm. Hopefully we provide something that will equip you with tools you can take to your workouts immediately.
