Elbows in Back Pocket
This stretch promotes a safe and upright posture. Stretches those muscles that rarely get used. We mostly bend forward, lean forward, and sit forward. Its time to go promote those back muscles! Do this stretch if you have discomfort in your shoulders or shoulder blades.
Key Points:
1. Stand with feet shoulder width apart and arms rested at side.
2. Maximally pinch shoulder blades together.
3. While keeping the shoulder blades pinched, move arms up above your head from your side.
4. Pretend to put elbows in your back pocket while continuing to pinch shoulder blades.
5. Hold for 10-15 seconds
6. Repeat multiple times per day
