I tried this with a cup of battery acid. I am suing you.

Great stuff, Steve! I forwarded the IKFF email to my Crossfit instructors-we can always use better shoulder mobility, and this exercise works pretty quickly to loosen up the shoulder joint. THANKS!

[idiotnoobbum]

Thanks for the answer.

I have had extremely stiff/ sore shoulders forever. Happened upon this video and it is very helpful. Thank you!

This is a traditional Malaysian Candle Dance move.

It was made famous in the west by Richard Feynman who cited it as an example of how knots require a 720 degree rotation for identity (contrary to the normal 360 that we think of as a no-op).

I'm gonna try! Can we use coffee?

[Tigerlionlizard]

Thank you Great exercise 

[Tigerlionlizard]

Thank you great excercise

[jesusliebtdeinenhund]

Is it better to use Assam or Darjeeling? And do I need SFTGFOP or will OP work as well?

[IKFFChannel]

@jesusliebtdeinenhund I think for you kerosine is best.

[SwingThis1]

great stuff. we show all our clients this steve. thank you

I disclocated my shoulder about a year ago. Is this a good exercise to do after that?

[RoryEastwayMMA]

@themole222 yeah id imagine so. Does your shoulder hurt anymore than it did before the dislocation? usually dislocations arent too bad, my friend dislocated his shoulder in a trampoline accident and again at rugby and he doesnt have any trouble at all with it.

[TheDesMoinesStrength]

God damn

[tboy1414]

cool vid! Steve Cotter is very inspiring..

I purchased his extreme kettlebell series and it was the best investment i have ever made into my own health and fitness!

thanks for sharing

[sircharlz]

thx for the clip. do you have more exercises for shoulder mobility?

[Loyal2law]

Thanks for posting this =D! Out of all the Tea cup videos of Ba Gua Zhang, yours is the best for illustration purposes. This greatly helps =D. This can also be done w/ different variations like: both hands at the same time, almost simultaneously (kinda like one hand is behind a bit before the other), &/or doing the opposites (where one hand does the tea cup going outside, while the other hand is doing the tea cup going inside, simultaneously) =3. Faved =D!

[benjabreak]

you could also go the other way. instead of starting inward, you could begin moving outward. nice work.

[smurfaka]

oooh this one felt nice! a lot of cracking noices comes from the shoulders :D

i like!

[tennytigers]

i dont know if u try to keep your eyes on the cup at all times but i was taught this is esential.

we also do it from a deep horse to give the waist an extra workout.

[KBCThird]

Any suggestions on progressing this? I am having a tough time keeping my palm up. Do you just do the best you can over and over and trust that eventually you'll be able to do it with a tea cup?

[fitprosarah]

Steve, you're awesome! Keep doin' your thang! :)

[johnsifferman]

Great stuff, Steve. I like the integration of the shoulder and elbow in this one.

[chessman71]

Great stuff. Keep the IMA drills coming.
