For strengthening the lower trapezius, general scapular stabilization exercises,and rotator cuff all of which are essential for impingement rehabilitation. You are not looking for strength gains,you are more concerned about endurance. So I would recommend a low weight and a minimumof 15-20 reps as tolerated. You need the high reps to stress endurance over strength, typically strength gains are found through 6-8 reps per set that is not nearly enough to achieve the gains that you want for a shoulder impingement rehabilitation.
