Alternating Overhead Reach

Looking to improve shoulder mobility and coordination? This gentle foam roller movement is a great way to activate your upper body while promoting spinal stability and controlled movement.

How to Do It:

  1. Lie down on a foam roller placed along your spine, supporting your head and tailbone.
  2. Extend both arms straight out in front of you, palms facing your feet.
  3. Slowly move one arm overhead while the other lowers toward your hip—reach in opposite directions at the same time.
  4. Move with control and complete 10 repetitions on each side.

This exercise encourages smooth, controlled shoulder movement while reinforcing core stability. It’s perfect for warm-ups, cool-downs, or as part of a daily mobility routine.
