Cannot get into bridge pose

Hello GB!

I can't quite get into the bridge pose - shoulder (and possibly wrist?) mobility is not there, uncertain about strength.  This eliminates almost 50% of the thoracic stretch series for me.  Is there a way I can scale it?  Any other tips here?  Thanks so much!

HI Matthew , rather than pushing from the floor, have you tried to kick up into the handstand position, reach the stall bar or the wall and then walk away from it?
