Standing Right Serratus Anterior (4)
1. Stand facing a wall with your toes pointed forward. 2. Bring both elbows to shoulder level,
and bend both arms at a 90-degree angle. 3. Keep your palms facing each other, and press your
elbows into the wall. 4. Keeping your elbows pressed into the wall, round your back by tucking
your bottom
under you and begin to squat by bending your knees. 5. Without letting your arms move,
continue to squat until your knees touch the wall. Do not let your heels come off the floor. You
should feel the muscles underneath your shoulder blades and on the front of your thighs engage.
6. Slide your arms down as necessary to keep a 90-degree angle at your elbows. 7. With your
back rounded, look straight ahead so that your eye level is horizontal with the floor. Keep your
heels on the floor and take a breath in through your nose filling the back of your chest wall with
air. Exhale through your mouth as you hold the position. 8. Keeping your eyes fixed on the wall,
attempt to further round out your back as your
head tilts back and chin tilts up. Your eyes should be slightly up at this point. 9. Open and close
your mouth, attempting to feel all your teeth upon closure. Keeping
your teeth together, breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. 10. Begin to
stand up by pushing slowly through your heels. 11. Relax and repeat 4 more times.
