How to do it

1. Stand or sit tall with your shoulders relaxed.
2. Bring your left arm straight across the front of your body at about chest height.
3. Hook your right hand or forearm around your left arm and gently draw it in toward your chest until you feel a stretch through the back of your left shoulder.
4. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds, then switch sides.

Track it with MyoAmigo

MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Shoulder Stretch from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Shoulders volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
