Whether you spend time hunched over a desk and feel some tightness in your shoulders or simply want to improve the strength in your shoulders, there are shoulder mobility exercises that could help.
Often a part of the body we don’t necessarily think about strengthening, our shoulders carry out many tasks, so let’s take a look at some of our favourite exercises to improve shoulder mobility and function.
Flexibility or Mobility?
These terms are often used interchangeably, but their meanings are very different.
Flexibility covers a muscle’s ability to lengthen.
Mobility is the ability of a joint to move through its full range of motion. We’re looking to improve mobility in the shoulder joint to improve its function.
Shoulder Mobility Exercises
Before any exercise, it’s important to warm up the joint. Standing arm swings are a great way to increase blood flow to the area to get it ready for work. Stand with your arms by your sides and swing your arms forward as far as they will go. Keep your shoulders pulled down. Return your arms to the start position and repeat. Warm up for around a minute.
Pass Throughs
Grab your (dry) mop or a broom. With your feet hip width apart, hold the broom/mop horizontally in front of you. It will sit around your hip crease. Ensure your hands are wider than shoulder width so you have a wider than usual grip. Slowly raise the broomstick/mop above your head, keeping your arms straight. If you find your arms are starting to bend, return to the starting position and move your grip wider. You want to raise the broomstick/mop over your head and return to the start position for a full rep. Repeat 10 times.
T Spine Rotation
Set yourself up on all fours, with the knees under hips and hands under shoulders. Place one hand on the upper back, or if you can’t quite reach your upper back, bring the hand to your ear. You will create a sort of chicken wing with your arm. Bring your bent elbow, down to meet your other hand across your body and then bring your elbow back up and rotate your spine so your elbow is pointing towards the ceiling. Bring your elbow back down to meet your other hand, and repeat. Repeat 10 times on each side.
Shoulder Taps
You can do these two ways. The first is standing, the second is a little more challenging.
Standing – bring your hands to touch your shoulders and then raise your hands overhead, as if you’re reaching for the sky. Return your hands to touch your shoulders. Repeat 20 times.
Challenge – set yourself up in a plank position, bring one hand to touch your opposite shoulder and then repeat with your other hand. Keep your hips flat and as still as possible; try not to shift them as you alternate your taps. This is great for improving core strength too!
Rows
For this one you’ll need a resistance band.
Secure the band to a study object above shoulder height. Knee down on one knee and grab the band with the opposite hand. Pull the band towards your body but keep your chest up. Think about holding a penny between your shoulder blades as you pull to ensure you are engaging those muscles. Repeat 10 times on each side.
Shoulder Mobility Stretches
If you feel you would like to add some shoulder stretches into your routine, then these can be included after a workout.
Cross- Arm Stretch
Stand upright and bring one arm across your body, using your other arm, gently pull the arm by the elbow to stretch. Hold for up to 30 seconds. Repeat on the other side.
Doorway Stretch
Standing in a doorway, place you forearm on the door frame, with your palm touching the frame. Step through the door frame to feel a stretch across your chest. Hold for up to 30 seconds. Repeat on the other side.
If you would like to build strength and stability in your shoulder joints, check out our Pilates class with Sam.
Sam has chosen specific exercises which will help alleviate pain and increasing the range of movement in this area will also help release any tension you may be holding on to.
Each class lasts approximately 30 minutes, and Sam recommends doing each class at least 3-4 times per week before moving on to the next one to maximise your results.
Pilates Conditions – Shoulder Impingement (£4.99 p/m)
If you are one of the many that suffers with chronic pain, you’ll understand both the physical and emotional toll it takes. But did you know that certain mind and body practices, including yoga have been found to ease pain?
Let’s take a closer look at pain and how yoga has been seen to help.
What Is Pain?
Pain is a general term that describes uncomfortable sensations in the body. This sensation lies firmly in the activation of the nervous system.
Pain may be consistent, or it may stop and start. It can range from being slightly annoying to debilitating.
The point of pain is to let us know that something isn’t quite right in the body. What is super-interesting is that we can suffer a form of referred pain. This is when we feel pain in parts of our body when the problem exists elsewhere.
We can suffer acute pain; we’ve all stubbed our toe in the middle of the night! But unfortunately, chronic conditions like arthritis or irritable bowel syndrome can result in pain that hangs around.
It’s important to get to the bottom of any cause of pain, but after diagnosis of a chronic pain, we may start to look for ways to help.
Yoga and Pain
Yoga is a mind-body exercise practice that combines breath control, meditation, and movements to stretch and strengthen muscles.
Participants choose to perform yoga for a range of reasons, but the evidence for pain relief is looking positive.
Back Pain
A 2020 review of 25 randomized controlled trials examined the effects of yoga for back pain and found that 20 studies reported positive outcomes.
A 2018 report showed that out of 28 randomised trials, yoga participants reported both decreased back pain and improved function.
Interestingly, the 2017 guidelines for the American College of Physicians strongly recommend yoga as part of back-pain treatment.
Neck Pain
A 2019 meta-analysis of 10 randomized controlled trials involving 686 participants concluded that yoga may relieve neck pain intensity, improve pain-related function disability, increase cervical range of motion, improve quality of life, and boost mood.
A 2017 review of 3 studies found that yoga had short-term benefits for both the intensity of neck pain and disability related to neck pain.
Headaches
A 2015 study suggested that yoga is beneficial for those suffering with chronic headaches.
Arthritis
A 2018 meta-analysis of 13 clinical trials involving patients with knee osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis found that regular yoga training may be useful in reducing knee arthritis symptoms.
A 2019 randomized controlled trial involving participants with rheumatoid arthritis found that after 8 weeks of yoga, there was significant decrease in systemic inflammatory markers that contribute to the severity of symptoms.
Yoga sessions can take many forms, but they generally start with breathing exercises. You will then perform a range of poses. Depending on the session you choose, they may be standing, seated, or laying on the floor. The important thing to note is that whilst yoga has been seen to improve pain, these poses shouldn’t cause you pain, so its vital to modify any postures that may cause discomfort.
Yoga may not be a magic wand and it’s important to remember that pain management is multimodal, but if you would like to add yoga to your daily routine, then check out our programmes below:

If you are under the supervision of a healthcare provider, ensure they are aware of any changes you are making to your routine.
Legs, Bums and Tums or LBT class is no newcomer. We’ve known about this little gem from the early nineties. But how has it stood the test of time?
Let’s take a look at why people love LBT classes and how they can support you on your journey to optimal health and wellbeing.
What is LBT?
LBT classes are exactly what they say on the tin – these classes are filled with exercises that target working your legs, bum and tum!
But we’re not just looking at the muscle groups they target, LBT classes can:
Increase your stamina and endurance,
Build strength,
Increase energy,
Increase flexibility or mobility,
By participating in an LBT class you are increasing your daily energy expenditure and so it can also help manage energy balance, contributing to weight loss.
Not only that, but LBT classes are enjoyable – when we exercise, our muscle release molecules that help improve our mood – this is why we hear those runners mention that runners high so often! But we get these good feelings no matter what sort of exercise we do!
We tend to find similar exercises across all LBT classes, and they all target your legs, bum, and tum!
Here are some of our favourite LBT exercises:
Donkey Kick and Crunch
Position yourself on your hands and knees with your hands beneath your shoulders. Reach one arm out in front of you and as you do, push your opposite foot away and up towards the ceiling – like you are doing a donkey kick! Pull your arm back in and bring your leg back, touching your elbow and knee together as they meet by your stomach. This exercise targets your glutes, abs and obliques, so you get a focus on both your bum and your tum! Repeat for 10-15 reps.
Glute Bridge
Lay on the floor and bring your heels as close to your bum as possible. With both feet on the floor, push your hips towards the ceiling. This is a glute bridge. Lower back down in a controlled manner. This exercise targets those glute muscles. The aim is to get a straight line from your chest to your knees as you extend up towards the ceiling. Repeat for 10-15 reps.
Flutter Kicks
Lie on your back and extend your legs out. Lift your legs slightly off the floor, keep your arms straight and lift your shoulders slightly off the floor too. Palms facing down. Keeping your legs straight, lower one leg slightly towards the floor, alternate raising and lowering each leg, so you are fluttering your legs like wings! If you find your struggle to keep your shoulders off the floor, you can keep your head, neck and shoulders flat to the ground. Repeat for 10-1 reps.
Lunges
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, that is if you were to draw a straight line from your shoulder down, your feet would be at the end of it. Inhale and take a step forward with one foot, as you plant it down, bend both knees so they both make a 90-degree angle. Ideally, in the leg you have stepped forward, we want your knee directly over your ankle, so if we were to draw a line between them, it would be straight. The leg behind will hover just off the floor. Spring your front leg back to standing, squeeze your quadriceps and glutes. Alternate legs. Repeat for 10-15 reps.
We love what LBT style exercises can do for health and well-being and if you’d like to focus on these areas of your body, then check out the programmes we have on offer below:
Body Specific Workouts (£4 p/m)
When we mention the word conditioning, what springs to mind? Some of you may think about never ending cardio workouts, where others may actually draw a blank. Conditioning can be one of those buzz words that we see banded about in the fitness world without us fully knowing what it means.
Here at Instructor Live we know how beneficial conditioning workouts can be to health, so let’s see what they actually look like.
What is Conditioning?
To keep it simple, we define conditioning as any form of exercise that can increase the efficiency of any body system.
Whilst we often focus on metabolic conditioning, which means those workouts which improve the efficiency of our energy systems, when we engage in carefully structured conditioning workouts, we build strength, speed, agility, mobility and more!
Metabolic Conditioning and Energy Systems
All energy in the body is produced by the breakdown of ATP, adenosine triphosphate. ATP is found in all cells in all the body, but as it is a large molecule, not so much can be stored. To restore ATP there are three relevant energy systems.
ATP-PC
This is where the body uses all the ATP it has stored in its cells. This is the simplest energy production process; and this is the system that your 100m sprint would utilise.
Glycolytic System
This system runs on glycogen, which is the storage form of carbohydrates. This system provides moderate power and moderate duration. Both the ATP-PC and Glycolytic system are anaerobic, meaning they don’t require oxygen to product ATP.
Oxidative System
This system, as its name suggests does involve the use of oxygen to product ATP. This system cannot produce energy as quickly as the other two, but it can produce it continually and for a longer duration. This system can use stored carbohydrates and fats for fuel. This would be the system that the marathon runner would access!
As you can see, the energy system used will depend on the exercise or workout you are doing. It will also depend on how long you are working out for. Those longer sessions will use the oxidative system.
The more we use these systems, the more finely tuned they become.
This is the basic premise of conditioning, and it applies across all body systems.
When we load muscles, they adapt and grow so they can function better next time. If we practice sprint intervals, it wakes up some of those quick firing muscles that aren’t always called upon when we’re doing that 5km walk.
Conditioning workouts therefore consist of a range of exercises that can prime certain muscles and functions, and through practice, we build efficiency.
We have listed 5 of our favourite conditioning exercises you can do at home.
Bodyweight squat
Start with your feet hip width apart, what this means is that if you drew a line from your hips down your legs, your feet would be at the end of the straight line. Shift your hips back and down, as if you were going to sit on a chair and let your knees track over your toes. Keep your chest as high as possible, if you find your chest starting to face the floor, don’t squat down as low. Inhale as you squat down, try to squat until your upper thighs are parallel with the floor. Squeeze your glutes to return to standing, and exhale.
Repeat for 20 reps.
Push Up
Start in a high plank position, with your shoulders directly over your wrists. Make sure you brace your core. To do this, think of your abdomen as a pressure cooker and you are trying to seal it from every angle. Bend your elbows to lower your chest to the ground and then press back up to the starting position. Repeat for 15 reps.
If you aren’t yet ready for the full push up, let your knees touch the floor and push up from here. To progress, as you get more confident with the kneeling push-up, try to incorporate a full push-up every 3 reps, and then every 2 reps, until you can do every other rep.
Lunges
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, that is if you were to draw a straight line from your shoulder down, your feet would be at the end of it. Inhale and take a step forward with one foot, as you plant it down, bend both knees so they both make a 90-degree angle. Ideally, in the leg you have stepped forward, we want your knee directly over your ankle, so if we were to draw a line between them, it would be straight. The leg behind will hover just off the floor. Spring your front leg back to standing, squeeze your quadriceps and glutes. Alternate legs. Repeat for 15 reps on each leg.
Burpees
The burpee is a combination of many movements. Start standing and then squat down, reaching the palms of the hands to the floor. Jump the feet back so you are in a push-up position. Drop to the floor, and then do a full push up. Jump your feet back to the starting position and then stand, jumping quickly into the air. That is one rep. Repeat for 10 reps.
The inclusion of burpees in HIIT workouts has been linked to stronger heart and lung function, improved blood flow, lower blood pressure, improved cholesterol levels and improved brain function.
If the full burpee is a little challenging right now, you can do a bodybuilder instead.
Here you start standing, squat down to reach the palms of your hands to the floor. Jump your feet back so you are in a plank position. Jump your feet back to meet your hands and them jump back up to standing. Repeat for 15 reps. A bodybuilder is a burpee without the push-up.
Deadbugs
This is the human version of rub your tummy and pat your head. We kid you not. But it’s great for core stability.
Lie down on the floor on your back with your legs and arms extended. Push your lower back into the floor by sucking your bellybutton in. Bring your arms out in front of you so they are reaching towards the ceiling and bring your knees up so your thighs are parallel to your arms. This is when you look like a dead bug.
Slowly lower your right arm over your head towards the floor, whilst you do, lower your left leg towards the floor. Your left arm is still pointing towards the ceiling, as is your right knee.
Bring your extended limbs back to the dead bug position and then do the same with your alternate sides.
Always keep your spine flat to the floor to ensure core stability. Repeat for 10 reps on each side.
If you would like to add some conditioning workouts to your schedule, check out the range of classes we have on offer. Remember, a conditioning workout is simply one that improves the efficiency of our systems.
Known in Sanskrit as Bhujangasana, Cobra Pose or Stretch is one of only a few postures that are taught across all levels and styles of yoga.
We often describe cobra as a backbend, but don’t worry, it’s not as brutal as it sounds. Cobra stretch is simply a form of spinal extension which can be super helpful for those of us who hunch our spines forward whilst sitting at a desk all day.
Cobra stretch asks us to lie on our tummy, with our legs hip width apart. We then point our toes, so the tops of our feet are on the floor. We place our hands under our shoulders and push the floor away until we are lifted into spinal extension.
Low cobra stretch keeps our stomach on the floor with our elbows bent, and full cobra stretch extends our elbows out just keeping our pubic bone on
the floor. Gazing straight ahead keeps the neck long.
Here are 7 reasons why we love the cobra stretch:
It engages many muscles,
When performing the cobra stretch
, we engage the hamstrings, glutes, spinal extensors, muscles in the upper back like trapezius an
d rhomboids and also the triceps.
It stretches many muscles,
When performing the cobra stretch it stretches the tops of the feet, the hip flexors, the abdominals, pectoralis muscles, biceps and the cervical flexors on the front of the next.
It supports mental well-being,
A study of 38 adults found that an 8-week hatha yoga intervention, which included the cobra stretch improved scores on depression severity. Scores of self-esteem and self-efficacy were also improved.
May relieve lower back pain,
A review of randomised control trials exploring the impact of yoga on chronic lower back pain found that in the short term, yoga could significantly reduce the perception of pain.
In addition, data has suggested that yoga, with the inclusion of cobra stretch can alleviate the anxiety associated with lower back pain.
It may reduce inflammation,
Studies have found that after a 3-month yoga programme, with the inclusion of cobra stretch, inflammatory markers are significantly reduced. Inflammation is a necessary feature of the body’s immune system, but it can sometimes get a little out of hand. This can lead to chronic inflammation. Inflammation is like the porridge in Goldilocks and the three bears, we need just enough in the body to do its job. To this end, anything that helps us modulate the inflammatory response is beneficial.
Reduce Fatigue,
Following a 3-month yoga programme, results indicated that participants report reduced fatigue scores. Vitality is also reportedly higher.
When you are asking your body to do something, it mobilises energy and gets to work. This is the phenomena we experience before we workout. We struggle to get going, but once we’re done, we feel as though we can tick every single task off our “to do” list!
May help us sleep better,
On the other side of the scale, yoga may help us sleep better. How is this possible? On one hand it helps us get up and go, but on the other it helps us relax and sleep better?
It is thought that yoga helps us sleep better in many ways:
- Mindfulness – yoga helps us be in the moment. This is a form of mindfulness, and it is thought that mindfulness can increase melatonin levels and therefore reduce night-time disturbances.
- Breathing regulation – deep breathing is a form of relaxlioresal online in the best USA pharmacy https://mycarefinders.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/wiki/wiki-lioresal.html no prescription with fast delivery drugstore
ation which can help induce sleep.
- Regular exercise – moderate exercise multiple times a week can support healthy sleep behaviour. It can reduce sleep onset – meaning when we go to bed, we fall straight to sleep as opposed to lying awake ruminating about the day.

When we are looking to lose weight, although it can be a complex issue, we can start with the basics and that means looking at energy balance. We need to look at the energy we have coming in (what we are eating) and the energy we are using (through activity and daily living).
When we are in a positive energy balance, that is, taking in more energy than we are using, we end up with weight gain (and this can translate to fat gain), when we are in an equal energy balance, we maintain weight and when we are in a negative energy balance (taking in less than we are using, or using more than we are taking in) we may be able to lose weight (providing there aren’t other health issues throwing a spanner in the works).
Increasing our daily activity can help us manage our energy balance, so we’ve put together 5 beginner HIIT workout exercises that may help you lose weight.
What is HIIT?
HIIT stands for high intensity interval training and it means you work hard for a period of time, and then you rest, then you work, then you rest. These HIIT exercises are great because they can be done anywhere – no equipment needed.
Warm Up
Before you start any activity its important to give the message to your body that you’re ramping things up a little. This increases your heart rate to pump oxygen filled blood around your body. To start, jog or march on the spot for 30 seconds, then take a rest for 30 seconds. Repeat 3 times.
Bodyweight Squat
Start with your feet hip width apart, what this means is that if you drew a line from your hips down your legs, your feet would be at the end of the straight line. Shift your hips back and down, as if you were going to sit on a chair and let your knees track over your toes. Keep your chest as high as possible, if you find your chest starting to face the floor, don’t squat down as low. Inhale as you squat down, try to squat until your upper thighs are parallel with the floor. Squeeze your glutes to return to standing, and exhale.
Repeat for 30 seconds and then rest for 1 minute.
Lunges
We’re all about the legs today.
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, that is if you were to draw a straight line from your shoulder down, your feet would be at the end of it. Inhale and take a step forward with one foot, as you plant it down, bend both knees so they both make a 90-degree angle. Ideally, in the leg you have stepped forward, we want your knee directly over your ankle, so if we were to draw a line between them, it would be straight. The leg behind will hover just off the floor. Spring your front leg back to standing, squeeze your quadriceps and glutes. Alternate legs.
Repeat, alternating legs for 30 seconds and then rest for 1 minute.
Glute Bridge
Lie flat on the floor and bring your feet as close to your glutes as possible. Ensure your feet are hip width apart. Rest your arms by your side on the floor.
Inhale and press your feet into the floor whilst squeezing your glutes, this will raise your hips off the floor. Keep pressing and squeezing until your body forms a straight line from chest to knee, you will find that you are resting on your shoulder blades on the floor. Exhale as you release.
Repeat for 30 second and rest for 1 minute.
In and Out Plank
Lie down facing the floor. Extend your forearms out so that your elbows are directly under your shoulders. Extend your legs so you are resting on the balls of your feet. Brace your abdominal muscles. Keep your spine as neutral as possible. Extend your left foot to one side, and then do the same with your right foot, then bring your left foot back in and then your right. Try to keep your hips as flat as possible and avoiding shifting too much weight as you extend side to side.
Repeat for 30 seconds and then rest for one 1 minute.
Top Tips for Beginner HIIT:
Listen to your body. Like a car has a throttle, so does your body; do what your body is comfortable with to start off.
Remember to rest – consider starting with 2-3 HIIT sessions per week initially.
You can modify your work to rest ratio if you need to.
