Kneeling Thoracic Rotation

In this video, you will learn how to do a kneeling thoracic rotation move for thoracic mobility.

1. Start in a half kneeling position next to a wall and place your hands behind your head with your elbow contacting the wall.
2. While keeping your hip against the wall, use the elbow to guide the motion to rotate your body to face the wall.
3. Then you can again use that elbow to guide the motion to return to the starting position but this time, you will open up as far as you can.

In this thoracic mobility move, you can use either knee forward in the half kneeling position. The move will feel different depending on which leg is forward and you might find one is tougher than the other. You can integrate it as part of a warm-up or a cooldown for thoracic mobility.
