Shoulder Stretch Behind the Back

Expert Advice

Do not force the stretch; go only as far as you can without pain for a gentle stretch.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Reach both hands behind your back and hold your left wrist with your right hand.
  3. Gently pull your left hand up and across your back, feeling the stretch in your left shoulder.
  4. Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, then switch sides and repeat.
