Seated Dynamic Chest Stretch

Positioning

1. Seated Position: Start by sitting on the floor in a cross-legged position. Your legs can be crossed in front of you, and your feet can rest on your thighs or the ground.
2. Posture: Sit up tall with your spine straight. Relax your shoulders away from your ears.
3. Hand Position: Bring your hands together in front of your chest, palms touching. This is your starting position.

Movement

1. Opening the Chest: Slowly open your arms out to the sides, keeping your elbows slightly bent. As you do this, squeeze your shoulder blades together and allow your chest to open up. Your hands should move horizontally to shoulder level.
2. Return to Starting Position: Bring your arms back to the starting position with palms together in front of your chest.
3. Repetition: Repeat this movement 8-10 times, focusing on controlled and gentle motions.
4. Breathing: Inhale as you open your arms and exhale as you bring them back together.

Tips

- Keep a gentle stretch, avoiding any sharp pain.
- Maintain a relaxed face and steady breath throughout the exercise.
- Adjust the range of motion according to your comfort level.
