Instructions

  1. Starting Position:

    • Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.

    • Engage your core to support your back.

    • Keep your shoulders relaxed and down.

  2. Hand Position:

    • Bring your arms forward at chest level.

    • Bend your elbows at a 90-degree angle with your fists facing each other.

  3. Movement:

    • To start the exercise, extend your arms diagonally upwards, moving them outwards as if you are grabbing something from above and to the side.

    • Maintain a slight bend in your elbows to prevent locking them.

  4. Returning to Start:

    • Slowly bring your arms back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement.

  5. Repetitions:

    • Perform 10 to 15 repetitions.

    • Focus on smooth, controlled movements throughout the exercise.

  6. Breathing:

    • Inhale as you raise your arms, and exhale as you return to the starting position.

  7. Tips for Beginners:

    • Start slowly to master the movement.

    • If you're feeling discomfort in your shoulders, reduce the range of motion until you build strength.

    • Keep your movements steady and avoid using momentum.
