DB Pec Press
3 sets of 30-60s of pressing. No rep focus just trying to find those pecs!
Be sure to not breath into the neck and shoulders while doing this. Stay low and horizontal with the breath.
-
Deep neck raise
3 sets of 30-60s hold
Focus on the front of the neck (up to just behind the ears). This is often an overlooked area when improving the movement of the shoulders!

Lat & Upperback Rotation Straddle
3 sets of 1 min per movement for BOTH the lat and upper back (that's 2 minutes total per side) 1 min lat focus 1 min upper back focus
Learning to engage that lat and upper back without the shoulder jutting forward will be crucial for your shoulders health long term.
