tricep stretch

Upper arm loosening

A tricep stretch is an exercise that lengthens the muscle at the back of the upper arm, typically performed by raising one arm overhead, bending the elbow so the hand drops behind the head, then using the other hand to gently press the elbow back: Hold the tricep stretch for thirty seconds on each side.
