Seated Arm-Forward Reach Interlock

1. Starting Position:
- Begin seated on the floor with your legs crossed or bent in front of you. Ensure you are comfortable, and your body is stable.

2. Arm Position:
- Interlock your fingers together, extending your arms straight in front of you at shoulder height. Your palms should be facing outward.

3. Engaging Your Core:
- Sit up tall with your back straight. Engage your core muscles to support your spine.

4. The Reach:
- Slowly reach forward with your interlocked arms, allowing your upper body to hinge at the hips. Keep your back straight rather than rounding your shoulders.

5. Stretching:
- Continue to stretch forward until you feel a comfortable stretch in your shoulders and upper back. Hold this position for 15 to 30 seconds, breathing deeply.

6. Return:
- Gradually return to the starting position by lifting your torso back up and relaxing your arms.

7. Repetition:
- Repeat this exercise 2 to 3 times, ensuring you maintain controlled movements to avoid straining.

Tips:
- Keep your legs stable and relaxed throughout the movement.
- If you feel any discomfort, ease back on the stretch or adjust your arm position.
