Instructions
Starting Position:
Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Keep your knees slightly bent and your back straight.
Relax your shoulders and let your arms hang naturally at your sides.
Arm Positioning:
Raise both arms in front of you, bending at the elbows to form a 90-degree angle, bringing your elbows close together in front of your chest.
Ensure your palms are facing each other.
Movement:
From the elbow position, extend both arms outward and upward simultaneously, straightening your arms as you do so.
Your arms should move outward away from your body, as if throwing something to the sides.
Keep your core engaged to maintain balance and control.
Return:
Slowly bring your arms back down to the starting elbow position.
Make sure to control the movement and avoid any sudden jerks.
Repetitions:
Aim to perform 10-15 repetitions.
Focus on smooth, controlled movements throughout the exercise.
Breath:
Inhale as you extend your arms outward and upward.
Exhale as you bring your arms back to the starting position.
Tips:
Keep your movements fluid and steady to avoid strain.
If needed, take breaks between sets to maintain good form.
Adjust the intensity by increasing or decreasing the number of repetitions.
