Dowel Teepee

Exercise Overview

This is a shoulder warm up and mobility exercise that uses a broomstick or dowel. This exercise increases in difficulty depending on how wide you grip the dowel, the narrower your grip the more difficult it becomes. Start by grabbing the dowel a comfortable distance (wider than shoulder distance) and raise one end up above your head and then behind your back while keeping the other hand at hip level. Then raise the other hand to pull the dowel up and over your body. Alternate directions as needed.
