Hi Matthieu,

The good news is that there are quite a few things you can do, the bad news is that there are probably quite a few things you need to do. 🙂


Take a look through the free Mobility project episodes (http://www.mobilitywod.com/episodes/), or better yet, subscribe to the Pro offfering (http://www.mobilitywod.com/mwodpro/).
You can search/filter by joint, movement, tissue and several other criteria, although not all videos are tagged for filtering yet.

The snatch/overhead squat is a very comprehensive movement screen so you’re probably looking at several areas in addition to your shoulders. That forward torso for example.
So probably; Hips (external rotation, movement restriction, eg http://www.mobilitywod.com/2012/01/episode-362-the-hip-demands-of-the-upright-torso/), “core” (thoracic spine, lumbar spine, mobility, bracing, 2 hand rule,), shoulders (external rotation, internal rotation, movment patterns, movment restrictions).
Lots to look at. Best of all, get the book, sorry to sound like an infomercial. It lays all of this out in a logical way that builds to an overall view of how Kelly sees movement and how to correct issues with it.
