Standing Side Draw Circle

1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent, and arms raised at your sides to shoulder height, palms facing the floor.

2. Starting with your right arm, draw large circles in the air with your fingertips, leading the movement from your shoulder joint. Ensure that your arm is straight, but not locked, and keep your movements controlled.

3. Complete the circles in one direction, such as clockwise, for 10-15 repetitions or for a specific duration.

4. Reverse the direction of the circles, performing them counterclockwise for the same number of repetitions or duration.

5. Repeat the same sequence with your left arm, both clockwise and counterclockwise.

6. Maintain good posture throughout the exercise, keeping your core engaged and your back straight.

7. If you want to increase the challenge or engage your core more, try shifting your weight from side to side as you alternate drawing circles with each arm.

8. Focus on moving just the shoulder joint, aiming to warm up the shoulder girdle and improve mobility and stability in the area.

9. Breathe evenly throughout the exercise, exhaling as you complete each circle.

10. This exercise can be used as a warm-up before engaging in more strenuous activity or as a standalone exercise to improve shoulder flexibility and stability.
