How To Do A Lying Overhead Shoulder Stretch Correctly
The Lying Overhead Shoulder Stretch is a simple and convenient way to stretch out your shoulders as it requires no equipment, and can be done anywhere, even while watching TV.
To get started:
- Lie down on your back on the floor, with your knees bent, feet planted into the floor, and your arms extended straight up into the air above your chest.
- Ensuring your back is flat and your lower back is pressed into the floor, slowly move your extended arms over your head towards the floor.
- Your arms should be straight and close to the sides of your head.
- Focus on lengthening your spine and reaching as far overhead as you can.
- Hold this for up to 20 seconds.
- Repeat.
