Arm Circles
Shoulder warm-up, dynamic
How to
Standing with arms extended out to the sides at shoulder height, make small circles with your arms, gradually increasing the size before reversing direction.
Benefits
- Warms up the shoulder joints before activity, rather than statically stretching them
- Increases blood flow to the upper body quickly
- A staple warm-up movement in most sports and fitness routines
Practice
20-30 seconds in each direction, keeping the motion smooth and controlled rather than fast and loose.
