TGU Shoulder Rehab and Prehab
The Turkish Get-Up (TGU) can be a very useful exercise to strengthen the shoulder girdle. Another helpful move similar to the TGU that has the exact same start position is the Armbar Stretch. These strengthening exercises help stabilize the shoulder and make our overhead position much more solid. Not only do they help weak and previously injured shoulders become stronger but they also serve as injury prevention exercises as well. Jeff Martone, CrossFit’s kettlebell expert, gives some important tips to performing these moves safely and effectively.
