Strengthen Your Shoulder Blades with Blackburn Exercise

Getting injured is the one thing you don't want to happen when working out, but with some bad form, that may lead you to some serious problems. One of which is getting your shoulders hurt while bench pressing. You get that sharp pain feeling with certain movements and when you rest on that side of your shoulder when lying in bed it hurts big time making it hard for you to sleep. If you experience this, you're not alone as I have the same experience also. It is caused by repetitive motion with incorrect execution which causes swelling on the rotator cuff. I've stumbled a therapy that could help strengthen the shoulder blades if you're at the end of recovery and can perform the exercise without pain and in good form.

Here's a video of the exercise called the Blackburn, named after Dr. Blackburn.
