Bodyweight Standing W Pose

1. Starting Position: Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your knees slightly bent and your core engaged for stability.

2. Arm Position: Raise your arms to the sides, forming a "W" shape. Your elbows should be bent at approximately 90 degrees, and your hands should be in line with your elbows, palms facing forward.

3. Shoulder Positioning: Relax your shoulders down and away from your ears, ensuring they are not hunched up.

4. Maintain Alignment: Keep your head straight and gaze forward. Ensure that your back is straight and not arched.

5. Hold the Position: Aim to hold this posture for 15 to 30 seconds, focusing on engaging your shoulder muscles and maintaining balance.

6. Breathing: Breathe steadily throughout the hold, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth.

7. Releasing the Pose: Slowly lower your arms back to your sides to return to the starting position.

8. Repetitions: Repeat the exercise 2-3 times, resting for a few seconds between each hold.

Notes:
- This exercise improves shoulder stability and strengthens the upper back.
- Ensure your movements are controlled and steady to avoid any strain.
