Shoulder Horizontal Adductors

Pectoralis Major, Anterior Deltoid, Coracobrachialis

Other Muscles at Play



Objectives
  • Use the scapular depressors to anchor and stabilize the shoulders while the shoulder horizontal adductors and pectorals generate the movement, creating balanced upper‐body effort.

  • Strengthen the pectoral muscles and shoulder horizontal adductors to produce steady, controlled pressure into the Magic Circle.

  • Use the Magic Circle to enhance torso stability by engaging the deep abdominal and maintaining organized alignment through the trunk.

  • Increase scapular stabilization as the shoulders move into flexion with the hands about shoulder height, reinforcing upper‐body support even in a more demanding position.

  • Focus on breathing to synchronize the movement.
