Try these 3 exercises and if you are having shoulder pain schedule an appointment with a physical therapist for further evaluation.

Step on a band with your opposite leg, starting position with arm near your pocket. Lift your arm across your body in a diagonal and keep thumb pointing up at top of the motion.

3. Dumbbell rotation
