A 2-minute upper-body sequence that starts with a deep chest-and-lat opener, then layers in two activation drills for the mid-back.
The butcher block goes first – forearms low, hips back, chest sinking – lengthening lats and pecs at once. The doorway pec stretch then isolates each side of the chest. Y T W raises wake the rear shoulder muscles, and wall angels reinforce better shoulder mechanics.
Bigger multi-joint stretches paired with smaller activation work targets the rounded-shoulder pattern from both directions: lengthening tight tissues, waking sleepy ones.
