Chair Upper Body Stretch

A seated stretch focusing on the upper body to enhance flexibility and reduce tension.

Instructions

• Sit on a chair with feet flat on the floor, shoulder-width apart.
• Extend your arms forward, interlocking your fingers with palms facing away.
• Lift your arms overhead, stretching upwards as much as comfortable.
• Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Not sitting up straight, leading to poor posture and ineffective stretch.
• Overarching the back, potentially causing discomfort.
• Holding breath instead of breathing deeply during the stretch.
