How do you get your shoulder blades to fan out like a gymnast or swimmer? I've noticed this while watching the Olympics. You see it when their arms are overhead.

Seems like that would be really good to prevent impingement on the acromion process.

Grasshopper, to look like a gymnast you must train like a gymnast!
