How to do the Overhead Tricep Stretch

1. Stand or sit tall and raise one arm overhead.
2. Bend the elbow, bringing your hand toward the opposite shoulder blade.
3. Use the other hand to gently guide the elbow toward the midline of your back while breathing deeply.

Tips

• Keep your torso upright and core engaged so your lower back stays supported.
• Relax the lifted shoulder away from your ear.

Adjustments

• Hold a strap between your hands if reaching the elbow feels challenging.
