Exercise Benefits

The open arm chest stretch loosens the muscles of the chest, improves blood circulation, and prevents neck and back pain. This stretch also helps to open up the chest and align the shoulder blades, improving posture and increasing flexibility. If you want a strong and lean upper body it’s important to regularly stretch your chest and upper back.
