Instructions
Bodyweight Around Head Rotation (Shoulders)
Positioning
1. Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Relax your arms by your sides.
3. Raise your arms and bend your elbows, placing your hands behind your head. Your elbows should point out to the sides.
Movement
1. Slowly rotate your upper body to the right while keeping your hips facing forward.
2. As you rotate, your elbows should stay in place, creating a twist in your torso.
3. Return to the starting position.
4. Next, rotate to the left in the same manner.
5. Repeat the movement for a total of 10-15 repetitions on each side.
6. Focus on controlled movements to engage your shoulder and upper back muscles effectively.
Tips
- Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward or backward as you rotate.
- Move at a steady pace to maintain balance and stability.
- Breathe steadily throughout the exercise—inhale when returning to the center and exhale during the rotation.
