How important is it to develop strength and flexibility in an athletes shoulder girdle? Dr. Sanchez says it is very important in any sport especially sports that require pulling and pushing. Using football as an example, it requires pulling and pushing and in many instances in odd angles. Having a strong and flexible shoulder girdle is vital in those instances to be effective tackling, blocking, catching, sprinting, and most importantly absorbing impact.
