Description of exercise Double scap wing is an exercise that focuses on strengthening the muscles in the upper back, specifically the scapular muscles. It involves lying face down on the ground with arms extended overhead and palms facing down. From this position, the individual will lift their arms off the ground, keeping them straight and squeezing their shoulder blades together. This movement resembles a bird flapping its wings, hence the name “double scap wing.” This exercise helps improve posture, shoulder stability, and overall upper body strength.
