Exercises (Shoulders)
Active Lifestyle
Consult your physician before starting any diet and/or exercise plan.
Position
Raise one of your arms across your body.
Technique
With your free arm, grip the elbow of your raised arm and pull it in to your chest. You should feel a light stretch on the back and side of your shoulder. Hold the stretch for 15 to 20 seconds, then switch arms and repeat the stretch.
Tip
Pull your arm in to your chest by gripping the part of your elbow that is closest to your shoulder. This can help give you better leverage than gripping the lower part of your arm.
