Description

From a standing position, raise your arms to horizontal while externally rotating your shoulders, and rotate your thorax to the side. Keep your pelvis stable during the rotation, your feet firmly planted on the floor, and your legs engaged. Keep your neck long, with your gaze following the movement or staying neutral, depending on what is comfortable for your neck. Keep your breathing calm, aiming for smoothness, control, and spinal mobility, then return to the starting position and repeat on the other side.
