In a world increasingly dominated by sedentary activity, the search for balance and physical activity is more important than ever.
As an experienced osteopath with a passion for physical wellbeing, each week I share practical exercises that can be easily incorporated into everyday life.
This week we focus on ‘big arm circles’ – a simple yet effective exercise specifically designed to counteract the tension caused by prolonged sitting.
The “big arm circles” exercise is ideal for loosening the shoulders, promoting circulation and revitalizing the entire upper body.
The movement combines the traditional lunge with dynamic arm circles, which not only activates the muscles but also invigorates the mind.
Follow these instructions to perform the exercise correctly and get the maximum benefits.
Large arm circles: Simple exercise to combat sitting syndrome
When practicing the “big arm circles”, it is important to listen to your body and adapt the exercise to your personal well-being.
Start slowly to find the correct posture and increase the intensity as required.
If you feel any pain, stop the exercise and consult a specialist if necessary.
Don’t forget to enjoy the exercise and vary it regularly to avoid getting into a routine.
