Cross-body shoulder stretch
Guide one arm across the chest without pulling hard.
How to do it
- Bring one arm across the front of your chest.
- Use the other forearm to support it above the elbow.
- Release gently and change arms.
Form check
Keep the stretching shoulder down and avoid pressing directly on the elbow.
Make it easier
Move the arm across a smaller distance.
Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
