Some swimmers are only feeling pain while swimming and exercising, others are in actual pain in bed at night. There is no one definite answer, or immediate fix to these issues; however, I would argue that the majority of issues stems from weakness around the shoulder blades, in combination of muscles overworking to tighten up, causing them to pull on certain nerves around the shoulder joint and scapula, to then be perceived as pain. And when we are in pain, we are definitely not generating as much power as we potentially could.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Watch video<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/38A-on6Furc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are swimmers that are either hypermobile: they need to stabilize and learn how to engage important muscles. Or, swimmers are tight and has limited range of motion: they need to mobilize more, both with movement, with foam rolls, and mobility balls.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most shoulder injuries are chronic, chronic meaning that injuries last for more than two weeks, but many of them can be fixed by proper dryland training, and self-myofascial release.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My tip is, learn how to properly use the shoulder blades. They are one of the most complex areas of the body, and most vital one for swimmers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They protract.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They retract.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They elevate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They depress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They rotate upward and downward.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swimmers are predominantly limited in the upward rotated position &#8211; strengthen the lower trapezius much more. This will improve the streamlines and make the butterfly recovery smoother.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, be sure that these muscles are functioning properly and able to help the shoulder blades in overhead positions &#8211; a key factor to master the streamline and butterfly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve have pain for weeks with no signs of improvement &#8211; go see a physical therapist quickly. If you have a foam roll or mobility ball, target the posterior deltoid and teres minor muscles behind the shoulder. These guys tend to get very tense and pull on nerves. Pain is often felt in the front part of the shoulder as a little pinch. Additionally, the pectoralis minor muscle has been shown in research to be shorter in swimmers with shoulder pain &#8211; so stretch and also use the mobility tools to loosen the muscle. Lastly, the lower trapezius &#8211; get a peanut ball for peanut sit-ups and movements into streamline to feel the muscles contracting and engaging in the desired overhead position, then to relax.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key to use these tools are to 1) be warmed up, and 2) to contract and relax. Movement is key, and they spots we feel the most tender, that where we need some extra love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want your own Peanut &#8211; order your own Swimmer Strength
