Gentle overhead triceps stretch

Bend an arm overhead through a comfortable range.

How to do it

  1. Raise one arm only if the overhead position feels comfortable.
  2. Bend the elbow so the hand moves toward the upper back.
  3. Relax and switch sides without pulling on the elbow.

Form check

Keep your ribs settled rather than arching your back.

Make it easier

Keep the elbow lower or skip the movement if uncomfortable.

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.
