PVC Pass-Through
A shoulder mobility drill: straight arms carry a PVC pipe from the thighs over the head to behind the back and return; the grip width sets the difficulty.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, a PVC pipe held at the thighs in a very wide overhand grip, arms straight.
Steps
- Raise the pipe overhead with locked elbows.
- Continue the arc until it touches the back of the hips.
- Reverse the arc slowly to the front.
Common mistakes
Elbows bending to get it past: widen the grip until the arms stay straight. Rushing the arc: slow, even passes. Ribs flaring as the pipe goes overhead: brace; only the shoulders move.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
