Why I Don’t Love the Sleeper Stretch for Throwers ⚠️

The sleeper stretch is basically the Hawkins-Kennedy impingement test in disguise.

Ask 100 throwers where they feel it and less than 20 will say the posterior cuff or capsule (the actual target). Most feel it in the front/side of the shoulder… where the impingement is happening.

➡️ Add in body weight causing shearing and a long lever allowing athletes to easily use excessive force.. Now we’re putting the shoulder in a compromised position with a high risk of over mobilizing or pinching on cuff tendons.

Before you go cranking IR range, ask this:
👉 Is total arc (ER + IR) the same as the non-throwing arm?

If yes, it’s likely just a normal bony adaptation, causing more ER, less IR. That’s not typically a problem.

But if you identify a true capsular or muscular restriction, we’ve got better tools:

✅ Arm Bar Rotations – the kettlebell applies safe, active posterior mobilization
✅ Rotation Cuff Stretch - Does a pretty good job isolating posterior rotator cuff
