Instructions:

  • 1Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart
  • 2Bend over at the waist with a slight bend in your knees, letting your arms hang down naturally
  • 3Keeping your back straight, swing your arms back and forth gently, simulating a pendulum
  • 4Increase the amplitude of your swinging arms each time, ultimately aiming for oversized motions
  • 5Make sure to engage your back and shoulder muscles as you swing

Tips:

  • Control your motion and resist the temptation to use momentum to swing arms
  • Keep a slight bend in the elbows to reduce strain
  • Relax your neck, don't crank it upwards
