"The next clip is to strengthen the rotator cuff. find a stable base and now I will show you two ways that you can do this. The first is of course most people don't have a lot of shoulder strength. I just have it with just one band. You are going to take the opposite arm and keep the elbow in nice and tight, arm by the side and you are going to rotate out. Now it is very important that you want to keep this elbow right at the side so you are actually strengthening the rotator cuff and not the upper shoulder. Now most people can't get much extension or range of motion on this but that's okay. Rotator cuff injuries are some of the most common injuries and this is a good way to help rehab. So go with the lighter band but less reps. Okay you just want to keep that elbow nice and stable against your side. Your body should be in an upright position but you can bend your knees slightly. Okay now if this is too easy one option you have other than going up a resistance band level is you can double it up and you could even assist it if you really wanted to challenge those muscles so it would be like almost an assisted exercise but for most people I just want to make sure that if you do that that wrist stays neutral, okay and you are just pushing gently enough to challenge that rotator cuff.
