Day 11 _ Upper Body Stability
from Live Train Perform · host Shaun Kober
Day 11 turns the focus to upper body stability — control through the shoulders, scapulae, and trunk while the arms move with purpose.The shoulders are designed to move, but they rely on stability from the scapulae, rib cage, and core to do so safely and powerfully. When that control is missing, strength becomes shaky, technique breaks down, and irritation creeps in.This session is about owning positions before loading them.You’ll work through patterns that develop:Scapular control during pushing, pulling, and reachingShoulder stability through full ranges of motionTrunk integration to support arm movementThe ability to absorb and produce force without leaking tensionUpper body stability isn’t about stiffness. It’s about precision. Knowing when to create tension, when to release it, and how to move the arms independently while the rest of the system stays organised.Like the other stability days, this session provides immediate feedback. Weak links become obvious — and once you can see them, you can address them.Stable shoulders move better.Controlled movement builds strength.Preparation prevents problems.Day 11 reinforces control where it matters most.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."The odds were stacked against me:● Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work, abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years period of my life● Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping school● At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new life in the workforce - 200014 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work and rugby20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier, at a high level26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit to become a firefighter32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning coach38+: The next evolution begins #coachedbykobes#livetrainperform#mindsetandperformanceLive Life To The Fullest.Train To Your Potential.Perform At Your Best!https://www.coachedbykobes.com/
