3. Hold for 10 to 20 seconds and repeat on the other side.

Proper Form And Breathing Pattern

Exercise Benefits

Excessive stress and strain can make your muscles tense up and can cause stiffness and pain. The shoulder stretch is a great exercise for reducing stress and tension and for improving circulation in the shoulder joint and muscles. Since the shoulders have such a wide range of movement, it’s important to stretch them regularly to encourage flexibility and reduce any signs of pain or fatigue.

Intensity And Duration

Pull your arm toward the chest until you’re able to feel the stretch in your shoulder muscles. Hold the stretch for 10 to 20 seconds without forcing the movement. Deepen the stretch slowly, until all the tension is gone, and then release the stretch and relax your arms.
