Pro Tip

Arm Position: Extend your arm across your body at shoulder height. Don't let your arm drop or raise too high as it can lead to strain. Your arm should be straight but not locked at the elbow. Gentle Pull: Use your other hand to gently pull your extended arm closer to your chest until you feel a stretch in your shoulder. Avoid pulling too hard as it could cause injury. A gentle, steady pull will be more beneficial. Hold and Release: Hold the stretch for about 15-30 seconds, breathe normally and then slowly release. Rushing through this process or holding your breath can cause muscle tension and reduce the effectiveness of the stretch. Regular Practice: Consistency is key to
