Description

Stand with a water weight in each hand and your arms in front of you. Perform large arcing movements, taking your arms out to the sides, then bring them back inward toward your chest. Then reverse the direction of the movement. Keep your elbows slightly bent, keep your back straight, and control the weights against the resistance of the water. Perform the number of repetitions recommended by your therapist.
