Shoulder instability can sneak up on you but the right exercises make all the difference.
If your shoulders feel weak, stiff, or out of control, these shoulder stability and mobility exercises can help! In this video, our board certified physical therapist, Mike Hogan demonstrates the 3 shoulder stability and mobility exercises he recommends to his patients. They include the following:
High Plank to Pike – 3 sets x 10 reps — builds shoulder stability, engages your core, and improves control through dynamic movement.
Waiter Carry – 3 sets x 20–30 seconds per side — challenges shoulder stability and safely teaches your shoulders to stay strong and supported.
Resisted Face Pull to Overhead Press – 3 sets x 12 reps — combines shoulder stability, rotator cuff activation, and controlled overhead strength.
If your shoulders are still weak, unstable, or in pain after giving these a try, book an appointment with JAG PT. Our team of certified physical therapists and athletic trainers will assess what's going on and create a treatment plan built specifically for you and your shoulder.
