A step-by-step guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the movement and what to watch for.
- Equipment
- Other
HOW TO PERFORM
- Lie face down with the roller under one side of the chest, just inside the front of the shoulder.
- Stretch that arm out to the side on the floor and support yourself on the other forearm.
- Roll slowly in short strokes between the front of the shoulder and the breastbone.
- Pause on tender spots and breathe, sliding the outstretched arm up and down to change the angle.
- Switch sides.
FORM TIPS
- Keep the pressure on the muscle in front of the armpit, never on the breastbone or ribs.
- If the arm tingles or goes numb, shift the roller away from the armpit.
