HYPERMOBILE PEOPLE: Beware of your limits - do NOT fully extend your elbows during the elevated exercises and only do the passive stretches if you have control of your rotator cuffs.

Though we’re using passive exercises, there are still some strengthening elements included in these exercises.

Many foundational pole shapes and moves, bendy or otherwise, require a minimum shoulder flexion of 180.

Tools: 1 block + an elevated hard surface (coffee table or chair)
