WEll I didn't go through all the posts but I imagine that this ine will be new to almost all of you.
A little trick I use sometimes. Lay prone on the floor (face down) and stetch your arms out as far as they go above your head. Now relax. have a friend stand between your outstretched arms and have them hold onto your wrists. This may be hard for some people who are the holders. In this case just have one person hold each wrist. Now, lift the person up by the wrists like you are holding up two buckets of water. The person that is being lifted is now hyper flexing their shoulder joints and hyperextending their back by the force of the lift. The person's chest should be off the floor. Make sure that the person being lifted isn't in too pain. Now hold the persons wrists for aprox 1-2 minutes. The longer the better. MOst people won't be able to stand holding or being held for more than a minute but try tohold as long as possible. After the hold slowly let the person who is being lifted wrists and arms slowly back down to the floor. The sensation is amazing. The memory in your joint receptors causes your body to think that there is more decent of the arms than there really is. In other words it feels like your arms and chest are traveling through the floor.
Give it a whirl. Its about as novel as roll tricks get. Happy rolling
