I’m a trainer that specifically works with rotational athletes and work with high school athletes all the way up to 60-70 year olds. The most common limitations are lack of hip internal rotation and thoracic rotation. There’s plenty of self mobs to clear up the hips on mobilitywod but naturally haven’t seen much on thoracic rotation since rotation doesn’t show up in crossfit. Once we clear up thoracic extension is there anything other than the basic tspine rotation exercises to help improve rotation?

Just clearing scapula restriction would help. If the soft tissues surrounding the t-spine can’t slide and glide, they won’t be able to provide optimal rotation. I’d also think about freeing up the tissues on the opposite side of the body – the diaphragm and intercostals. Here are some useful recent videos:
