Arm Raise Prone Position Tips

  1. Start by lying face down on the floor with your arms extended above your head.
  2. Engage your shoulder muscles by squeezing your shoulder blades together before lifting your arms.
  3. Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain stability and protect your lower back.
  4. As you raise your arms, focus on lifting from your shoulders rather than using momentum.
  5. Avoid shrugging your shoulders or tensing your neck. Keep them relaxed and let your shoulder muscles do the work.

  7. Remember to breathe steadily throughout the exercise, inhaling as you raise your arms and exhaling as you lower them.
