Proper Exercise Technique
Tie a band to a head level rack or machine and grab the other end with your hand. Facing the machine you tied the band to laterally extend your shoulder with a 90 degree bend in your elbow. Pull and rotate back on the band and squeeze the muscles in your shoulder.
This builds up the muscles in the rotator cuff and is a good way to warm up and prevent injury.
