Here is a banded pull apart sequence I picked up during my recent trip to Mike Boyle's facility. This is a great upper back activation exercise that helps combat the rounded shoulder posture so common with mountain bikers. This will really help get your shoulders more stable and help combat shoulder impingement and pain.
