The point of rolling your thoracic spine is usually to get a bit more thoracic extension and help improve your efficiency with overhead lifts. Remember that your shoulder joint only really achieves 165 degrees of overhead flexion and in order to get that big weight overhead we need to get that last 15 degrees from our thoracic spine. Thoracic spine extension is also a major player in shoulder health so we better get this hammered down.
Most people I see rolling their spine tend to just go back and forth for several minutes over their spine. While this is all well and good, I don’t think we actually ever get the effect we’re shooting for, and that is thoracic spine extension.
The main objective of foam rolling is to relax the spine over the roller so we get some mobility in the vertebral joints of the thoracic spine.
If we’re just rolling forward and back, we’re never actually getting any mobility in our thoracic spines. The key is relaxing your spine over the roller in several different segments along the thoracic spine.
I made a video to show you just how to get the job done.
Some more of my favorite t-spine mobility drills
Lastly, I’d follow these drills up with some T-spine stability and shoulder motor control and then hammer away on your technique!

Is this really true though? Is the kipping pullup a much safer variation then the butterfly pullup? Will I tear my shoulder to shreds if I perform butterfly pullups? Honestly I’m not sure. I wanted to do some brainstorming and see if we can come up with some answers.
First things first, what is the butterfly pullup? Who better to instruct you then Mr. Chris Spealler:
And some good old regular kipping pullups with Carl Paoli
I think the first question that comes to mind is, why the hell would I do either? Well, you can obviously do more repetitions of kipping pullups then strict pullups. On top of that, butterfly pullups are faster then kipping pullups. When you put together a workout that requires a lot of pullups in a short period of time, the butterfly pullup fits the bill nicely. So, it makes sense to be butterflying (one of my favorite past times).
The question I want to answer is which one is more stressful on the shoulder, specifically which one is more injurious to the labrum? Great question. First off, how do we injure the labrum in the first place?
Given the complete sparsity of research on shoulder injuries in the crossfit population, we’re just going to have to guess on this one (There is research on the mechanism of injury for other athletes though, so we can atleast draw some conclusions from that realm). There are two ways in which …read more
