Move 2 of 7
Mid Pec & Front Shoulder
Starting position

Slide your arms up so your elbows are at 90 degrees, level with your shoulders, forearms on the frame.

Hold 30–45 sec

Breath — Slow, relaxed breathing

How to do it

Step forward with one leg and gently press your breastbone straight ahead. Hold and breathe into the center chest.

Keep in mind

Squeeze your shoulder blades together behind you, as if pinning a pencil between them.

Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
