Get down on floor on all fours.
Stretch one arm out on the ground as you lean forward.
Take the other arm and slide it underneath the stretch arm, keeping your palm up.
Both arms should be straight as you keep your shoulders square.
Lean forward to feel a stretch in your shoulder.
Hold position for 8 to 10 counts.
Repeat on opposite side.
