What It Is
A gentle warm-up that loosens your shoulders and gets blood flowing before upper-body work.
How to Do It
Stand tall with your arms straight out to the sides at shoulder height. Draw small circles forward, slowly making them bigger. Reverse and circle backward.
Skill Level
Novice. Everyday movements on a stable base. Safe to learn on day one.
Type
Mobility. Moves your joints through their range to warm up and loosen stiff areas.
Engagement
Bilateral. Each rep works both sides of the body at once.
