How to do it
- Bring one arm straight across your chest at about shoulder height.
- Hook the other forearm above the elbow and draw it gently in.
- Keep the shoulder blade down and the torso facing forwards rather than rotating with it.
- Hold, breathe, then swap. This reaches the back of the shoulder, which the other four shoulder drills do not. The time shown is the total for both arms — half on each.
