Perfect Warm-UP for softball

Make sure that you are doing everything you can to help keep yourself healthy this spring.  If you are playing softball or baseball you want to make sure you are getting your muscles ready for the load that is going to be placed on them.  When you are throwing you are using your Serratus Anterior muscle.  you may not think of this muscle or read a lot about it but it is important for stabilizing the shoulder.  Watch our video and see how you can do the Push-UP Plus exercise to help strengthen and warm this muscle up before you play softball or baseball.
