Passive stretching: chest muscles / shoulder muscles

Individual work

Stretch one arm out in front of you and move it backwards at chest height with as wide a range of motion as possible (gaze remains forward, legs stable). After some time, move the arm at chest height in front of the body to the opposite side (arm pointing to the side, elbow in front of the body). Then switch arms.

Variant:
Lift both arms backwards or to the side at the same time (arms crossed in front of the body).

The exercise can also be performed in a seated or kneeling position.

No material required
