How to do supported arm pendulum
- Set
Stand beside a stable chair. Rest the other hand on its back. Hinge a little at your hips and let the working arm hang loose.
- 1
Shift a little forward and let the loose working arm swing forward.
- 2
Shift a little back and let the arm swing back. Keep the shoulder relaxed.
- 3
Return the arm to a relaxed hang. Repeat the small pendulum.
-
Switch sides and repeat.
Take care. Let the arm swing freely in a small range. Keep your neck long and do not force the shoulder. Stop if you feel pain.
