Scapular winging

Valentine's Day Special article. Let's talk about love, our angels, halos and angel wings.

Scapula is our shoulder blade. There are a lot of muscle attached to the scapula, creating movement in our shoulders and arms. All these muscle must work together so that there is proper movement. Without proper movement and muscle activation, imbalances can occur. ie, some muscle work harder, some muscle start slacking away.

Scapular winging can be spotted easily. 
It look likes a pair of wings on our body.

An imbalance training program that consist of too much upper body pushing or lack of training can both cause it.

95% of my clients have scapular wingings. Here's a checklist to find out if you have problems from it.

  • You can see your wings on your back
  • You encounter pain/ache in at least 1 of the following muscle frequently
    • arms
    • shoulders
    • upper trap
  • Pain in shoulder joint

Most of the cases i see belong to the mild category. It can be fixed easily as long as you do your rehabiliation properly.

Rehabiliation work

SMFR to the following muscle/bones.

  • chest
  • upper trap
  • lats
  • upper back
  • thoracic joint

Mobilize the following joint

  • Shoulder joint
  • thoracic joint

Activation the following muscle

  • Scapular muscle
    • Standing cobra (week 1)
    • Behind the neck pull apart with a shrug (week 2)
    • DB press static hold (week 3)

Standing cobra

54 hours after impact.

i went back to work just now. can walk with a limp, i need to keep my left knee in the same angle when i limp.


regained full ROM with much lesser pain at extreme angles.

pain only at left medial knee.

lots of trigger points located at calves.

think it's probably just knee sprain and i'll be back running in 2 weeks. but i'll play safe this time, give it at least 1 month while doing stability work on my knee. 

ok guys, knee is stability, not mobility. (to those who sms me to do mobility work la. aha)

i'm recovering well, maybe due to smfr, maybe pain killer, maybe the cream or maybe everything.
