Why is it so hard for some athletes to find overhead. Tight Shoulders? Tight Hips? Both? When we see an athlete get the bar "above the head" but not "overhead" the cue is often push your head forward. Neutral spinal alignment is not as simple as it may seem. The body often will distort one area to achieve success in others. When referring over head position athletes often hyper extend the low back to get the bar overhead, leaving the shoulder angle closed, the cue then is pull down your ribs. Is Peter is good overhead position?
