There are four rotator cuff muscles. This shows how to work two of them: subscapularis and rhomboids/teres minor. The rhomboids are not technically part of the rotator cuff which is the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, and teres minor. The rhomboids help with posture and shoulder stability just like the 4 rotator cuff muscles. When rotator cuff or stabilizer muscles are used for motion other than stabilization it creates serious problems and can be very painful for the shoulder. Eventually injury or impingement causes too much pain to ignore. That's when exercises like these can help correct issues, build strength to eliminate pain and hopefully stop further damage.
