Sidelying arm circles
Filed Under Exercises |
Lie on your side, knees bend, arms extended in front of you at shoulder-height, palms touching. Head on a pillow if you want. Start to pull your top arm back (keeping the arm straight, not bending at the elbow), then push the arm out. From this pushed out position start circling the arm over your head, side, hip, back to your starting position. Do the same pulling back and out, then circle the arm over the hip, side and head, back to starting position. This is one set. Do 4 sets and then lie on your back. Do your shoulders feel the same? Change to the other side. With this exercise you do not have to worry about right breathing and/or abdominal control; the only thing you have to think of is to not lift your head of the pillow/mat. Turn it, but no lifting. Enjoy!
