Rotator training should be something all individuals should incorporate in their training.  Shoulder health and mobility is of paramount importance when it comes to pain free ranges of motion.  As a whole our internal rotators are typically a lot stronger than our externals, but a balance must be achieved between the two.  The movement in the video is a great movement that can be utilized when getting ready for some shoulder work.  I like to add a pull from the waist to the start of the movement in the video and a press to the rotation once it is overhead, but both additions are not necessary.
