Instructions
1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms by your sides, and keeping your body upright and core engaged.
2. Lift your arms forward and upward until they are extended above your head. Your palms should be facing each other at the top of the movement.
3. Circular motion: Continue the circular motion by moving your arms backward in a smooth arc until they reach a horizontal position behind your body, with your palms facing outward.
4. Complete the circle by bringing your arms back down to the starting position at your sides.
5. Controlled movement: Perform the movement in a controlled manner, keeping the motion fluid and without jerking your arms.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, making sure to breathe evenly throughout the exercise.
Tip: You can perform this exercise in both directions (forward and reverse) to work on shoulder mobility and muscle balance.
