In two months I’ve gone from a shoulder that was so painful it was a struggle to get dressed in the morning to playing golf again. I am enormously grateful for your help.
Wow , fantastic to hear Jeremy 👏🏆🙏⛳ you have done so well to build yourself back up, especially to play golf again! Well done! I used to play when I was younger and had to keep the upper body strong and mobile. Ensure you do my Pilates videos aswell for a strong core to help your swing, plus it will give you rotational flexibility aswell 👌🏆💪 keep it up and let me know if you need any other help ok!
I enjoy all of your workouts very much. The pace is excellent and I feel the benefits in all of my muscles. I work hard at keeping fit as I get older and these workouts are essential. I hope you do more. A big thanks!
Hi Shari thank you so much I appreciate your comments 🙏 good work for prioritising your strength and muscles. I try and keep the pace effective and challenging for people 🤗 Once I recover from having my baby in a month or so I am looking forward to resuming filming more videos 😀 Do subscribe and enjoy the various playlists! Let me know if you need anything.
Hi Vanessa B, I have scoliosis (right thoracic left lumbar curves.) I love your two videos for shoulders. I am strengthening and increasing movement with your exercises. Do you have any others for the thoracic spine? Thank you
Hi Diana great work on doing these videos 👌 good to hear the improvements. Try these videos on the Back Pain and Shoulders/Posture Playlists which will help more with thoracic mobility: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CNbzZZEUoCE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oG445G3jPx0.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hTfpxlcElho.html let me know how you go ok 👌🤗
VanessaB Health TV, thanks so much Vanessa. I will add new exercises this afternoon. I won’t do the first exercise as I’ve been told to avoid twisting as I also have osteoporosis. I appreciate your help. Thanks again
I've been struggling with shoulder problems throughout my life! Everything from throwing, to weight lifting, and more often since i started rock climbing a while ago! Been doing your exercises and feel them helping alot! Just wanted to say big thanks for making these videos and impacting my sports experiences so positively 😊😊 Cheers
Fantastic to hear! welcome to the channel and I do hope you subscribe and enjoy more videos to help you! What you are doing with your rock climbing and other exercise is great, and the style of exercise I do on this channel will be like the 'underneath' layer of movement and strength that will enhance your other activities. Keep it up!!
Hello, thank you for joining! Excellent you are finding benefit from the videos 💪🤗 here is a knee video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1G_etHrCFkM.html
Hi @Vanessa! I have been following all your exercises with resistance band and doing them regularly. I have a weak serratus Anterior and tight chest muscles - will you be able to make a focused video for this one? Thank you so much!!
Hi there 😀🙏 Thank you for your comment! I am so pleased the band exercises have been helping you! Please do write up comments on all the videos you do as I honestly love hearing people benefit or to get ideas from you 💪✅️ Yes! Chest muscles are often tight, this is common. Do check out my Stretch Playlist to go through the various Stretch routines, some involving chest and upper body. 💪 Let me know how you go with that Playlist! Reach out if you need any other help ok 👍
Hi Vanessa, I was wondering if this would help my muscles to firm between underarm and just above the breast ? (There is a extra small portion of sagging fat sticking out) only left side.. Or if you may recommend from your video, I would very much appreciate it.😊👍 from Glendale, Southern California 🌴
Hi Tracy! This video is more isolation work for the upper body. I think for this you would benefit from more compound movements using shoulders chest, arms together to really activate the pecs and tone upper body. So try this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-igpptYjePP4.html and do the various videos on the Pilates Playlist for upper and full body toning. There is a good amount of holding up through the arms etc which will help this. Ensure you are eating well and drinking plenty of water too 🤗👌 let me know how you go with this vid and your progress ok!
Thank you for the excellent video. I felt much crunching in my right shoulder during the rotation exercises and it actually hurt. My left shoulder was fine, probably because the surgeon "cleaned it all up" while repairing my supraspinatus. Poor right shoulder had to do all the work for months while I was re-strengthening the left side.
Hi Linda! Yes that may be correct with the overcompensation. Make sure your surgeon has cleared you for videos and all these band exercises ok🤗 You never want to push through bad pain. In this case, check with your doctor if its ok for the rotations and maybe start with a lighter band. Let me know how you go ok 🤗
Hi Vijaytha😀 Thank you so much! Really appreciate your kind words🙏 Hope you are going well with all the band videos on here! Reach out if you need any help ok🤗
First, congratulations on the birth of your son. So happy that I found your videos.

Good morning. I’ve started doing this band on Sunday. I still do LOOP band for shoulder and arms on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Changed to LOOP video once on those days, followed by 9minute upper body and shoulder (Tuesday), 12 minute shoulder and back (Thursday), and 12 minute shoulder and upper back (Saturday). I have a calendar keep of videos. Normally, on Wednesday, i target posture in videos. Most weeks, target to get some band daily and add in legs. Overall I’m regaining strength. Thanks Vanessa ❤️
Awesome to hear! Great job in organizing all of the vids for your best benefit and for what you need. This is an excellent tip for helping others who will read this. Thank you for sharing such useful ideas Kelly! 🙏👌
Hi Vanessa! I'm so thankful for you and your channel! After doing your exercises and extra stretching, my shoulder pain is gone! I do have a question, for the side raises and external and internal shoulder rotations, will it be just as effective to use light 2-3 lb weights?
Hello and great work on your improvements 💪🤗 the weights do have a different effect on the body in that you don't have as much control as such, so you need to ensure you feel strong and stable, correctly aligned too before doing movements. The band also creates a nice, even resistance as you push and pull it outwards, whereas the weight will be heavier on the joint and more 'free' moving, so again stability is key here👌
@@Vanessabhealthtv That makes a lot of sense. Thank you so much. It’s so clear that you care a lot about helping others get healthier and happier. I’m a huge fan.
Hi, could you please give the length of the band you are using in this exercise video ? Is it 6 ft ? Since it's blue, I am assuming it's the "extra heavy" theraband sold on amazon.
Hello 😀 it's approx 1.5 metres long. I find longer ones better for more variation of movements. By the way I'm working on getting good quality bands for sale with the correct resistance and length for my clients, so do subscribe and stay tuned. There are varying strength and resistance levels depending on brand. I am using a different brand in this, not Theraband.
Thank you! Thank you! Many must have been reading my mind as I was mentally asking for another video like the 1st one. Little did I think of making an online request. Thankfully, there were enough enthusiasts who did. I am grateful to have discovered tonight that another Vanessa B Health video was available. These exercises have definitely helped reduce shoulder pain and allowed for more dexterity and freedom of movement. Very grateful for what Vanessa has shared.
I didn't know if I responded to this!! Well I'm glad you saw others ask Haha and yes feel free to request anything new! The follow up vids are becoming as popular as this 😀 Hope you are going well with all the workouts and thank you for your feedback 👌
Just found your videos tonight when looking for exercises for my sore shoulders to complement my physiotherapy. Enjoyed them so much I've just ordered decent bands to work with. I'll be looking up your other body workouts here on. Thanks. Love your reassuring delivery as well. Must be the Aussie (?) accent :-)
Hi Kevin! Welcome and thank you for joining us here 🤗👌 haha glad you like the accent! There are plenty of band routines on that Playlist, so check it out in your time 😀 let me know if you any help with anything ok!
Hi Vanessa, would you recommend these movements to someone who’ve had a disc joint degeneration along their cervical spine two months back? While the doctor has advised to stay off sports and gym, the physio therapist have started incorporating some techniques using this band for strengthening the back and core specifically, although they are nothing like yours. Keen to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
Hello Damon, I suggest you show these moves direct to your physiotherapist as I cannot tell you a clear answer to this as I have not seen you in person, nor do I know the full extent of the degeneration etc. In my experience this would be ok for you provided you start with a light band and be aware of technique, plus tuning into if any abnormal pain arises. But again, for full clarity and to be sure you are doing the right thing for yourself, always ask the physio in person who is treating you ok 😉 Also look at the body holistically and ensure you are strengthening all other muscles to support your spine other than just cervical area. This is always a good approach for long term 😀
Hi Hector💪 Thank you for your comment here and really glad this video is helping! Do check out the Resistance Band Playlist on this channel for heaps more band videos, and hope you enjoy! Reach out if you need any help ok :)
Thank You so much for compiling these exercises in a quick and easy workout. Loving them for knocking off after being slumped over a desk (well dinner table these days) and hoping it is doing my body some good. Keep them coming
Hi Natalie! Thanks for connecting here 🤗 glad you like the vids! And yep I hear you with the dinner table being the desk 🤣 there are heaps of vids you can do on the different playlists here so check them out in your own time, and reach out if you need any help ok 🤗
Hi Sharon that's great news! Thank you for your comment. How has this helped you? Are you doing some of the other videos too? Let me know what else you need 😉✌
Great video. I have rotator cuff tendinitis and my Physio has given me some stretches however i much prefer doing one of your videos. Do you thing this Video is suitable for tendinitis or perhaps a bit strong.? If not i would love to see a video for supraspinatus & infraspinatus tendonitis strengthening. Many thanks, and much appreciated. M
Thank you so much! Glad you like the video 😀 I would use light band with tendonitis and do only a few reps with slow, controlled movement as you don't want to cause pain. Always go off what your physiotherapist says and do those stretches too as they have seen your condition and are giving you exercises specific to your needs, whereas this video is general advice. That's a great idea for supraspinatas muscle specific, I will create this video too! Also check out my other 12 Minute Shoulder and Upper Back strength video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Llft_JbD5ys.html which will also benefit and give some other variations to this one. Do them say 3 or 4 times a week and your physio stretches too. Keep me posted, and do subscribe for updates and other vids 💪😉
@@Vanessabhealthtv Wow, thanks so much for the speedy reply and information. I will continue to do both your videos with an easier band as well as my physios recommendations. Thanks!!
@@moniqueboseley9692 no probs:-) sometimes I can easily get to respond if it's in daytime, sometimes takes me a few days haha. Building your core will also be of benefit so check out the Pilates playlist too ✌😉
Hi Kirsty, great work for doing the videos! Yes of course, that is a great request. I think posture correction in it's own is a must and something many people need 🤗👌 Thank you for the suggestion, I'll add it to this weeks list 💪✌
Hello Joan yep for this video it's a super long band I cut around 6 feet (2 meters Australian measurement). The brand for this is Resista Band I'm not sure if they available everywhere as I got them in Australia:)
Thank you so much for your videos. I went through PT years ago and no longer have my notes. Watching your videos is like having the Therapist right next to me. My severe shoulder pain was almost totally resolved in less than a week by using your videos. I'm so glad I found you. I look forward to using your other videos.
Hi Stephanie, welcome and thank you for your comments! That's incredible to hear that your shoulder pain is getting better 💪 And yep I think the videos are super effective in the case of targeting certain muscles, rather than just notes. I work better following along in this case, and glad you are finding it beneficial like you have the trainer there with you! 😀 Do subscribe and follow me on Instagram and Facebook too: @Vanessabhealth for more inspiration, education, updates and fun stuff ✌ Let me know if I can help you with anything else!
Hey there thanks so much for your comment! Glad you found my video and finding it beneficial 👌 Computer work does affect us so do this a few times a week with some of the other band videos and Pilates videos on my channel 🤗 let me know if you need any help!
Great routine. Decades of scoliosis, and now spinal fusion have really been hard on my neck/shoulders. I can do these exercises safely and get stronger. Thank you!!
wow yes thats alot for your spine and neck/shoulders. These exercises will help strengthen those areas for you without impacting on the body. Hope you find benefit and do enjoy the other videos too by subscribing! Thank you for your feedback and let me know if there is anything else you could benefit from and I can film :-)

@@Vanessabhealthtv hi hun it's my hubby e mail I'm hos wife I lost over 4 stone in 3 years I got fibromyalgia and depression anxiety disorder I love doing you work out but it's the back of my bum and belly that's really slack I'm in pain most of the time but I do try to do my work outs any advice would be great xxxx
Wow! It’s been a year since previous workout at it. Love the bands to re-visit. Great one for shoulders and upper back plus benefit to computer work and posture. I just got back last night from trip. We took a morning walk, then I followed with this excellent upper body workout. Thanks Vanessa 🧘🏻♀️❤️
Love to see you back on a video that connected us in the first place ✅️😎👌🏆 So great this is still a favourite for your posture and back Kelly! Some good foundational exercises on here that we can always revisit. So proud of your progress and willingness to do literally every video on here plus all my coaching programs 🙌🫶🏆 Success, body changes, strength changes and great eating has been exciting to see with you! Very proud, let's keep going 👌✅️
I love the first video you did targeting these muscles, and this one is amazing as well! I've had several shoulder surgeries and doing these routines has helped me to maintain my shoulder health. Thank you for these innovative videos as they are incredibly beneficial!
Thank you Steven, that is great to hear 😀 The first video is by far my most popular one glad to know you have done both to keep your shoulders strong, so well done for being consistent on this 💪Do check out the other videos for abs, back, legs, stretches etc and I hope you find benefit in these too! Let me know if you need any help or any other videos, stay subscribed too!
@@Vanessabhealthtv You're welcome, VanessaB. The two videos really compliment one another, and are both simple yet challenging, more so than one might expect! I have checked out a bunch of your videos and mix them with Indian clubs which I have been swinging for years. You are the one who really got me into therabands. They are an amazingly versatile fitness tool and you really do an amazing job showing how to extract their potential. I have checked out a whole bunch of your videos and they are all great. Have incorporated several into my fitness regime, will keep reviewing older ones and look forward to the new ones.
@@steveo8015 thank you so much for letting me know! That's great you are doing some others now too. Once you start Therabands you get hooked, but in a good way! I agree with you in that they are versatile and help with so much strength and mobility for the whole body. Stay well! Thanks again 😉✌
@@Vanessabhealthtv Thank you for all that you do, and for being so receptive and attentive to your followers. I wanted some good Theraband advice and to learn some basic movements to establish a solid foundation. Luckily, I discovered you. I am hooked, and it's all good. A lot of your exercises are unique, and even the lighter bands can seriously target those small muscles that are often ignored. I like your floor exercise routines also. Your knowledge and enthusiasm are contagious, but in a good way!
@@steveo8015 thank you SO much. You've truly made my day! I appreciate you explaining why you like the vids because sometimes I do doubt myself and hope that my wonderful subscribers and viewers are gaining benefits! Awesome work, thanks for joining my community and I look forward to continuing to help you 👌😀
Hi Diane 🙋♀️ try out the Stretch Playlist and do some of those videos. What sort of hip pain is it? Like glute pain or tightness? Or from something like bursitis?
I just found your workouts. have been looking for a follow along routine for my shoulders and rotator cuffs with bands. This is amazing! Thank you so much and keep them coming!
Hi there, thank you so much for your comment! Really appreciate it :) I am so glad you like this video and it's helping your shoulders:) There are many more on the Resistance Band Playlist, so please do check them out and write up a comment with each that you do so I can see how you are going:) Please do subscribe and reach out if you need any help ok!
Thanks ... for a very instructive exercise set. Do you have anything for tennis elbow / golfer’s elbow ... muscle strengthening. Or these only will help
hello Ravindra :-) This video will help, but ensure you are doing wrist strengthening aswell. Ask your physio for exercises if you suffer from this. It's also about strengthening your upper back having 'rotational flexibility' throughout your torso for these specific sports, especially golf (I used to play !!) In this case, I suggest doing videos from my PILATES PLAYLIST where you will do rotation and core. At the same time, massage for the arms, shoulders and upper back after doing these sports will help you to stay strong yet relaxed in the joints. Hope that helps !
Question please///the right shoulder ihas a very tight internal rotator. I am nervouse to strenfthen it further. Best to continue with external rotators until the internal one has stretched somewhat?
Hi Vanessa, within an hour of doing this I began to get spasms in my lower back. What did I do wrong? My own conjecture is that I didn't engage the stomach muscles/ core to support the lower back. Do you have any exercises to relieve that pain?
You could be right in not getting your core strong enough. Also possibly the band is too hard right now. Do you have underlying back problems or any issues? Or recently been ill/injured? I cannot know the exact cause as I do not know your history. So best go to your doctor if you do have back issues or anything else that needs addressing. It could also be imbalanced muscles where the back gets triggered first if you have already overworked this area. I would not do any videos for now till next day. Then go to Stretch Playlist and find a lower back relief video 👌
I'm having a bit of a struggle with the External Rotation and Internal Rotation when trying to get to a 90 degree angle. I'm using a resistance 4/5 band and somehow it won't go up as well. Any advice for this? My arm holding the band feels weak and wants to go back down. :/
Sometimes it's tricky to get the full range of movement due to tightness in the joint. Just do what you can and over time this may improve. If it doesn't you could see a physio and get specific massage or stretches for the issue. It's ok not to get full 90 degree as long as you feel your deep shoulder working 😊
Glad you felt this one 🤗 Be sure to check out the Neck Stretch video to compliment the work you do in this video. Also make sure you keep shoulders down and back in all workouts to avoid tightening your neck. Let me know if you need any help 👌😀
Hi Sue and Bill 😀🏆Thank you for your comment! Excellent job here with staying consistent and now feeling the benefits of these exercises ✅️ Really proud of you! Your movement and strength has improved, way to go! Tell me, have you done any other videos here? Let me know what you would like to work on and I'll guide you to the best videos for what you need 😀👉
Hello Frosja, great to hear! If you do this two to three times a week for a few weeks you will notice a huge difference in these muscles! Enjoy the other videos and start to mix and match them 💪🤗
Excellent thanks mam ..This was helpful me subscribe .. can this exercise doing resistant band ? I have rounded shoulder and my upper back very stiff and weak so please guide me any exercise tips.. thanks again
So just make sure you stand as tall as you can while doing this routine. I suggest doig my back strengthening and Pilates videos to help release tension in your back muscles, this will help :-)
Thank you very much, Vanessa! These exercises are really helping strengthening my shoulders for swimming. I am 61 years old and doing these exercises have helped tremendously!
Hi Diane, welcome and great job! Glad to hear this is helping you especially with swimming. Well done 🤗💪 keep it up for maintenance a few times a week, this video and the other 12 Minute Band Upper Body Routine on this Playlist 👌 let me know if you need any help ok 😀
Thanks for pointing me in the direction of this video. I had to wait a couple of days for new, longer, bands to arrive but raring to go now. I really enjoy your teaching style. Good job!
Hey Jeremy! That's good you got the bands 💪So glad this video is helping! Work your way through the playlists and focus on different muscles as you need to each week 💪🤗 Let me know if you need any help ok!
Hi Joanne, no I do not have anything specific for tennis elbow but can certainly put together some exercises 💪🤗 do you do tennis or golf? I used to do both!
Awesome Vanessa , your narration , demonstration , analysis are absolutely fantastic. I have become big fan of yours. Me and my family will follow you now onwards
Wow what a lovely comment thank you Yogesh! I do hope you and your family subscribe to the channel, and enjoy the other videos too. Is there anything you need help with in particular?

Yes, a superb complement to your earlier video. Your creative use of the theraband has introduced new ways of exercising to me and your instruction and practice tips are very useful. I particularly like the internal and external rotation exercises which do not require anything other than a theraband. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge here. Really enjoy your channel!
you are very welcome and thank you for the feedback ! Ive been teaching for many years and love this stuff, so glad its clear and helpful. Any other vids you want let me know! Il be filming more over the coming weeks :-)
I would like to see a vid on improving flexibility and strength around the knee and also the muscle group that runs from the knee up to the hip. I know that's asking alot! I am in the process of trying to build strength, stability and flexibility in these 2 areas, particularly the knees ( for hill climbing and decent) I use your shoulder workouts all the time and really love them. Thanks so much.
Hello! Thanks so much for your comment 🤗 Keep doing all the different playlists for full body and mind wellness. Let me know if I can help you with anything 😀
Do this video for shoulder imbalance, plus the original theraband video I did as you need to wok on those deeper muscles, then start to add your pushups and other shoulder exercises, see my Pilates workouts for this!
Hi Elaine, welcome and glad you like this one 🤗 do check out the other videos on the various playlists and let me know if you need any help ok! Are you working on anything specific right now? 🤗
@@Vanessabhealthtv Hi, Vanessa! Yes, I am working on weight loss. I want to work on core a little more (tone), and I know that means overall body work .
Thank you so much Irina 😀 I don't have a lot for specific stretching with the band but I'm back to filming this week so will do that! What are you thinking? Also check out the Stretch Playlist for nice routines targeting different areas for flexibility 👌🤗
@@Vanessabhealthtv oh perfect, thanks for the recommendation, there's plenty of exercises in the Playlist. I personally use the band to build the deeper muscles and was just wondering whether you could expand the band's use (no pin intended, really haha) to stretching. I actually don't know if it can be used for that, I am just a layman on this topic. 😅 Thank you so much though for your work! Love from Germany :)
@@OleanderProducing haha love it, no pun intended...yes I can 'expand' on the topic 😂 It does do the deeper muscles but in fact the 'full body' band routines I have include both deeper and more surface muscles working so you target the whole body for tone and strength. I will certainly put together some more movements and combinations as I resume filming now! Looking forward to it and helping you and the other wonderful people who do my workouts 👌🤗 And yes a stretch one with the band will be done too 👌 Amazing to hear you are from Germany! Love how we can all connect:)
GM Vanessa, I tried this workout for the first time this morning and I truly enjoyed it. I swim 2x a week and I need to strengthen my back and shoulders. I can really feel the workout as I am writing my comments. I will be incorporating this video and other videos in my weekly return. How often do you recommend doing the same routine in a week? Thank you again for sharing.
Hi Linda thank u for your comment! It's perfect to compliment your swimming and will provide deeper strength and mobility for the shoulders in those movements. Do this 3 to 4 times per week, every second day or so. Check out the other playlists and workouts too, especially the Body Strength and Pilates videos to get that full body, holistic approach and balance throughout your muscles. Let me know if you need any other help 👌🤗
VanessaB Health TV, I can’t seem to find the Pilates video but I will continue to search for it. Being a plus size/full figure woman, I’m thinking of trying your pregnancy videos. I have no muscle strength.
@@lindaj.brooks2365 here is the Pilates and Body Strength Playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PLN4e1ZysZu4auCL4IN3rWyD6lcpbZAARG and yes do try the others as a start, great idea 👌

@@carjam49 ok great. Ive had a few requests for helpful exercises for doing computer work etc so will work on these soon. Great to connect with you Carole!
Great to hear! 💪🤗 this is perfect for tennis and shoulder stability but also mobility. Check out the other vids on this Playlist too which will really help your shoulders 👌
@@Vanessabhealthtv yes, upper back, and trying to improve posture and work on strength and flexibility all through my shoulder girdle. I have recently started a Pilates class and I am trying to compliment that with a home practice using your great videos and some yoga vids.
@@nelty08 that's great to hear. Awesome combo to do the class and some videos.

Hi there! Thank you 🤗 yes you can do these exercises while pregnant as they are all standing. Just be mindful not to strain or use a band too heavy that may make you squeeze core too much. Secondly, if you get dizzy lifting arms or anything overhead, sit down or eliminate those ones. How far along are you? I'm 27 weeks myself! Check out the PREGNANCY playlist for safe workouts 👌
Thanks for your response. I am 24 weeks pregnant. Its pretty hot in my part of the world and I tend to get dizzy alot. Good wishes for you and your little baby⚘🙏💫
@@tulipsforever oh wow Congratulations!! Good luck on your journey 🤰👌 I've had the dizzy thing too. Just make sure you eat even before exercise and avoid overhead arm movements so you don't get more lightheaded. I'm filming a new set of pregnancy workouts as we speak! Connect on social @vanessabhealth Instagram/Fb to stay in the loop x Best wishes!!
Hi! thank you for these exercise, these have really helped me overcome my shoulder rotator cuff injury. However, i still have some doubts: 1. Earlier when i used to do the exercise of previous video, i felt a lot of fatigue in my shoulder blade area muscles, now i don't. Am i doing it right or the muscles have healed? 2. Sometimes i feel some tension in my neck while doing the stretch exercises of previous video, any specific reason why this happens? It would be wonderful if you can answer my doubts. Thank You! P.S.: i have a left shoulder injury(shoulder blade ligaments injured); i used to play tennis(though i'm right handed) and i write with my left hand
Hello and thank you for your feedback! So glad the videos are helping you. To answer your questions: 1. If you are not feeling it as much it means you are getting stronger and used to the movement and muscle activity. This is a good thing. I believe with band work and targeting different layers of muscles as in these shoulder videos it is best to stay slow and controlled. Check your posture and put your shoulders down and back and ensure your technique has not slipped. To 'feel it' once again you could get a slightly harder band and/or increase the speed a little for variety. 2. The neck pain you have felt most likely is because in doing these sorts of upper body band exercises you are also triggering deep neck muscles. They are connected to your traps and upper back muscles which is why many people feel the neck working. I do aswell when I do these workouts. It's not a bad thing as long as no serious pain. Seek your physiotherapist to check for you if you feel you need this looked at though. It's just that your neck is not used to being triggered and worked with those other muscles. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need further help 😀
@@Vanessabhealthtv Thank You for answering my querries, it's amazing that you have taken out time to reply. Yes the pain is not serious or persistent, its the stretch i feel on that side. I tried working out this video and its amazing! Wish You all the best ! and Thank You for putting up such high quality fitness videos! Take Care!
