Scapular push-ups isolate the shoulder blades—encouraging controlled protraction and retraction without bending the elbows. They target the serratus anterior and mid-back muscles, which are key to stabilizing your shoulders and maintaining strong posture.

Why It’s Essential for Beauty Pros:

• Supports Shoulder Health – Helps prevent pain from repetitive overhead and forward-reaching tasks like cutting, coloring, and blow drying.

• Strengthens Postural Muscles – Builds endurance in the upper back so you’re not collapsing forward throughout your shift.

• Improves Scapular Control – Essential for reducing tension in the neck and traps during long hours behind the chair.

• Foundational for Pain-Free Movement – Creates a strong base for more dynamic arm and shoulder work.

This small but mighty move helps you reconnect with your shoulder blades—so your arms can work better, longer, and with less fatigue.
