"Tight or weak shoulders affect not only our functioning in daily life, but our yoga practice. Poor posture and tight shoulders limit our muscles' freedom of movement."
"The shoulder consists of three bones: the scapula, clavicle, and humerus. Together these bones comprise the shoulder girdle, which is crucial for shoulder movement."
"The clavicle acts as a strut or support to the front of the girdle and rotates during most shoulder movements, while the scapula serves as an anchor for all shoulder muscles."
Tight or weak shoulders can limit movement and affect daily life and yoga practice. The shoulder consists of three bones: scapula, clavicle, and humerus, forming the shoulder girdle. The clavicle supports the girdle and rotates during movements, while the scapula anchors shoulder muscles and stabilizes movements. Understanding shoulder anatomy is essential for improving shoulder function through yoga poses, which can alleviate tightness and enhance overall mobility.
