Instructions

Sitting Underhand Crossover on a Chair

Positioning:

Sit on the Chair: Choose a chair that allows you to sit comfortably with your feet flat on the ground, hip-width apart.
Posture: Sit up tall with your back straight and shoulders relaxed. Your arms should be at your sides.

Movement:

Starting Position: Extend your arms out to the sides at shoulder height, palms facing up.
Crossing Arms: Slowly bring both arms in front of your chest and cross them over each other. Your right arm should go over your left arm.
Open Arms: Return to the starting position by extending your arms out to the sides again at shoulder height.
Repeat the Movement: Perform the crossing motion several times (10-15 repetitions), then switch the crossover so that your left arm goes over your right arm.
Breathing: Inhale as you extend your arms and exhale as you cross them.

Tips:

Move at a slow and controlled pace to maintain balance and focus on your form.
If you feel any discomfort in your shoulders, reduce the range of motion or take a break.
Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain stability.
