| Wall Angels | Wall Angel is an excellent mobility exercise that improves shoulder flexibility, strengthens postural muscles, and helps counteract the effects of prolonged sitting.
Step 1: Stand with your back against a wall, feet about 6 inches away from the base. Press your lower back, upper back, and head against the wall. Bend your elbows at 90 degrees, raising your arms to shoulder height with your palms facing forward.
Step 2: Slowly raise your arms overhead while keeping them in contact with the wall. Move as high as your mobility allows without arching your lower back or lifting off the wall.
Step 3: Lower your arms back to the starting position in a controlled manner, maintaining contact with the wall throughout the movement.
Step 4: Perform 2–3 sets of 10–15 repetitions, focusing on smooth and controlled motion.
This exercise helps improve shoulder mobility, posture, and upper back strength, making it a great addition to any routine. | | Explore More Fitness |
