Seated Shoulder Tap on a Chair

A chair drill for the arms: from arms spread wide at shoulder level, fold the hands in to touch the shoulders and spread them out again.

How to do it

Setup

Seated near the front of a chair, feet flat, back tall, arms spread straight at shoulder height, palms up.

Steps

  1. Fold the forearms in and tap the fingertips on the shoulders.
  2. Hold the upper arms level throughout.
  3. Reach the hands back out to straight arms.

Common mistakes

Arms sagging below shoulder height: lift them back to level or rest. Rounding forward in the chair: sit tall, chest open. Rushing the taps: an even, unhurried pace.

Breathing

Easy and steady.
