I'm training to be the world's strongest hugger (specifically for vulnerable single mothers). My meeting with Guinness Book of World Records is in 2 months and this video will definitely help me make my mark! Thanks!
@@E3Rehab lol but seriously though, great video. Ive been trying to strengthen my serratus and I didn't even know about some of these. I will definitely be using them from now on.
10/10 video. Clear, direct, great visual explanations, and I love that you cite your sources. Helped me realize I was neglecting upward rotation. I really love the uppercut workout!
Graduated from Chiro school back in Feb of this year and this video was the best explanation I've seen on serratus anterior activation/exercises. Way better than anything they taught us there. Thank you for helping to better my education and help my patients!
I accidentally trained my serratus instead of my shoulder and now I'm sored in areas I've never been before. Did a research and found your video, which I find very informative, thanks.
Whoa! This is great content, well produced and smartly summarized. Really like all the footnotes you put up on the screen regarding study outcomes as you do the exercise. Much gratitude for these. 🎉
I really appreciated this video. This is a muscle that I am realizing the importance of for shoulder blade balance and I needed a video like this. You explained the concepts and exercises throughly and made them easy to understand. Thank you!
I can appreciate this, and these exercises, I've been a seditary person for the best of the past 2-3 years, which has exacerbated a semi latent cervical spinal condition. I've noticed that all the aesthetic muscles I used to work on have probably been a excellent way to minimize my c-spine issue.
Okay hands down this video helped me get an understanding of my issue. I've been doing a lot of bench press not push ups and dumbbell press not barbell press for years. Only recently I've got a big pinching feeling around my rotator cuff. Thought it was my AC but after watching this I may have neglected my Serratus Anterior for years. Starting this tomorrow before my workout as a warmup and finishing with one has a cooldown Really hope this helps ! Adding this in 3x4 times a week I'II edit this comment in a few weeks to tell you, my progress!
With arthroscopy four months ago, the biggest challenge is stretching my serratus so I can return to swimming the backstroke. This video is the most helpful set of stretches - I’ll show them to my physical therapist to further work on that pesky serratus. Thanks!
Pillow case is genius! So I think I injured this area on both sides doing push ups - have had pain there for about 4 months. Chiro/massage etc nothing helps. So I'm going to start doing your exercises and I know these will help fix this. Awesome exercises, thank you.
I did cable crossover going from low to high yesterday and have very sore serratus today! Smiled when I saw your demonstration at 0:30, that explains it very well :)
-> I was told that to safeguard the knees and elbows you should have 99% extension in the elbows and the knees while performing any exercise, 1% flexion should be there to make sure that we are not hurting our joint capsules(cartilages) and -> how cartilages get their blood supply I know that happens with diffusion, but it is a bit confusing for me and in the same video, -> can you please tell us that how can a person do rehab of a damaged cartilage, how much time does it take and -> what happens when we strengthen muscle around the damaged area. -> I am really impressed by the content quality that this channel produces keep making content guys. My request is toooooo long, apologies 8).
Looking forward to trying these! Especially exercises 3 & 4. For the last weeks I'm focusing on scapula movement in the class i teach. Exciting to get some few more moves in my toolbox. Thx for good content.
For me it seemed to be strengthening the whole chain in relation to the movement patterns and removing the need for some compensations, but also building more mass and strength around the scapula and teaching the body how to use the scapula motorics instead of skipping them and using upper trap. I used to always have traps to ears without intending it and almost never the scapula stayed against the ribcage when sliding. It was apparent in overhead press, bench press, pullup and less in pushup. Obviously it can't be generalised to other people. I seemed to find overhead pressing very useful in terms of actually having to control a heavy weight and having a fairly easy motoric pattern to practice it, because you almost involuntarily stick the scapulae to the ribcage and slide them well controlling the weight since it's so easy to notice if your scapula is out of control - the barbell is further away and you don't feel as strong during the movement. Plus you can just really feel those muscles in focus working, which I find the most useful. In exercises like dynamic hug I just really don't know what I'm working, it seems to usually be delts and forearms. Pullup was another one where I could really feel what the shoulder and the back were doing, I had this odd swing or shift mid movement because my left side back was very underdeveloped, the lat was basically non-existent and really not pulling its weight (pun intended). As the lat started developing, it was easier to also control the scapula. Pulling with the lats almost automatically makes the scapula slide in a smooth and efficient fashion if you focus on it.
I always noticed these muscles get big with shoulder exercises, but until today I never thought to isolate these muscles. Next time I do a shoulder exercise I will try these. I appreciate you giving examples of actual exercises to do and spend most of the video covering those.
I injured my right arm, two different locations the first significant damage glenohumeral and the second scapula. I noticed it that part of my bicep on the injured arm. It has been a week and today is the first time I can lift hand over head. I also noticed some of the under bicep 💪 to armpit extra fleshy and not hardened biceps pre-injury . Now what exercises can I do to increase muscle strengthening in the underneath region of my arm.
Whoooo so many great exercise options!! I'm going to go with Dumbbell arm raises and push up plus to downward dog. Thank you so much for creating great content!

Dumbbell Arm-Raises... okay so that's essentially a Y-raise, which is what I was going to do for lower traps. That's convenient. I'm using gymnastics rings, so that would add a lot more of the protraction element compared to dumbbells. Then there's also my push-ups which I protract at the top. Awesome video, very helpful.
Been having issues with overhead mobility and click-y shoulder blades. My physio suggested serratus work but push up pluses never really did much for me. The uppercut was a totally different story, I could immediately feel those muscles working and fatiguing really quickly. I’m curious if you have any suggestions for benchmark strength standards to support overhead / shoulder heavy sports?
Great video thanks, best I've seen so far with lots of options. I think you missed that these exercises are good for a winged scapula though. Which is what some people are using them for.
@anasofiatorres4357 sorry Ana I am no expert, i guess it could be due to lifting, I think we could all do with including more of these movements, I did scapula work and also lower traps and rhomboid work to fix my shoulder issues
The Only exercise I have found that really give me sore S.A. is deep narrow pushups!? That is letting my torso pass my palms, achieved by having my hands placed on something on the floor, books, cups for example. I don't really know why this is and are now going to man-guess. I think that when the torso passes the palms into the deep pushup, this is forcing the shoulder blades to narrowing on the deep part of the pushup. Going up I'm focusing on maximum separation of the shoulder blades. By performing the exercise by stated I think I'm getting closer to a full range of motion and by that activating the S.A. more. The reason I'm always looking at S.A. activation movies on YT is that I wanna find weight resistance exercises for S.A. since the exercise I recommend can't be performed with weights. Trying to perform the exercise with for example cable-cross as resistance does not at all give the same activation...on me anyway.

My serratus does fine just from doing typical movements such as pulldowns and pull-ups.

Lol you missed the most important reason to do these exercises… to get sick all around abs! Those muscles are really cool looking
abs?
Thanks you much
Shoulder blade position is key, thanks for telling us what to do with it. I have severe winging and rounded shoulders. This helps a lot, thank you!

I ve been looking for serratus strengthening xercises thnx
How many sets & reps should we do for each exercise?
valuable information, ill try it today i was limited to pushup plus only because i didnt know any other excersises
My ribs are showing and I wanted to know what muscles covered them so I can target that muscle look better. Thanks.
excilent exercises for meee
thank youuuu brooo🔥🔥👌👌💕💕👍
What a great video, excellent. This is very strong.
Is it possible that somehow the Serratus can be a root cause of chronic pain? Great video thank you for sharing!
Thanks, very useful!😊
Wow great excercises
arm raises with weights. That one I really felt. That's the one for me.
you are great,hugs from brazil,thank you obrigado for the video
Thank you very much!
Thank you!
Dumbbell Arm-Raises... okay so that's essentially a Y-raise, which is what I was going to do for lower traps. That's convenient. I'm using gymnastics rings, so that would add a lot more of the protraction element compared to dumbbells.
Then there's also my push-ups which I protract at the top.
Awesome video, very helpful.

The Only exercise I have found that really give me sore S.A. is deep narrow pushups!? That is letting my torso pass my palms, achieved by having my hands placed on something on the floor, books, cups for example.

Extremely useful
Thank u sir
Great info! Thanks. If you have one side that is weaker than the other is it recommended to perform the excercises just for that weaker side? The
I THINK I CAN FINALLY FEEL MY SERRATUS
I've also found half-kneeling landmine press and shrug is nice too
Awesome 🤞
MERCI BEAUCOUP
Great video. Got my sub 👍👍👍
Ring push ups are the best followed by the barbell overhead press and than landmine press
Way to cite the lit. Excellent info!!!
The ab wheel hits it too.
Thank you.
#GodblessNigeria
Very good very good bravo 😊
very helpful thank You! Though during most of these exercises other parts of the body like abs or arms get tired soon and you can't focus on the Serratus muscles. exercise 6 for example targets mostly only serratus
Dear E3 rehab,
1.Dont you think it may cause or worsen issues such as rounder shoulders, hunchback etc...?
2. The motion of the muscle start with the 2:22 rounding of the shoulders and then the rasing if the elbow up the head and behind it? Like is it necessary to first do the "rounding" of the shoulders and only then do the other part like if it doesnt would it compansate by other muscle such as upper trapizius maybe?
Great information. Question: For the upper cut and front raise, guessing you execute that starting in scapular retraction? I notice more front delt; likely unavoidable.
Good but when referencing papers it is "et al." as in "call me Al", it being an abbreviation of the Latin et alia, meaning, "and others". Subbed.
Thank you for mentioning that shoulder press and push ups is enough for some people.
Good info
GREAT VID!!!!!
Thank you!
Thanks
Look at the anatomy of the muscle in which direction are going the fibers and in what angle and then you will know what to do
Great video 😘
4:43 perfect tattoo placement
Best serratus exercise explanation and tutorials ever please follow back ❤
Excellent
Bro awesome video. I've had issues with training SA and this was amazing. Im going to share this. Im always learning.
Glad that i accidentally find this video! Learning is awesomeness🎉
I just use incline bench at mid to low weights. Seems to do the trick since it’s at the same angle and distance and since it’s light enough I don’t need to do shoulder pinching.
I discovered that my left side serratus anterior is weaker/smaller than the other one and the left side always have an exagerated retraction while doing push ups and i can t protract and engage the chest the same way as my right side ,that s why i have a muscle imbalance ,thanks for help
