Instructions

Interlock Fist Circle Draw (Shoulders)

  1. Starting Position:

    • Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart.

    • Keep your knees slightly bent and your core engaged.

    • Interlock your fingers, creating a fist with both hands.

  2. Arm Position:

    • Extend your arms in front of you at shoulder height, keeping your fists together.

  3. Movement:

    • Begin to draw a circle with your fists. Start by moving your arms out to the sides, then up and over to the front, completing a circular motion.

    • As you draw the circle, make sure to keep your elbows slightly bent and your shoulders relaxed.

  4. Direction:

    • Perform the movement in one direction for about 6-8 repetitions, then switch directions and repeat.

  5. Breathing:

    • Inhale as you move your arms up and out, and exhale as you bring them back down and together.

  6. Form Check:

    • Ensure that your shoulders remain down and away from your ears throughout the movement.

    • Maintain a steady pace and focus on drawing smooth circles with your fists.

  7. Finish:

    • After completing the desired repetitions, gently lower your arms back to your sides and shake them out to relieve any tension.

Tips:

  • If you feel any discomfort in your shoulders, reduce the size of your circles or take a break.

  • Keep your movements controlled and intentional to maximize the benefits of the exercise.
