Topic description

Sitting on a chair with your back straight, stretch your arms out to the side at shoulder height (form the letter "T") with your palms facing forwards in the direction of your gaze. Move the backs of your hands backwards (behind your shoulders) with small rocking movements. Alternatively, the arms can also be bent (90 degree angle at the elbow joint) so that the upper arms are parallel to the floor and the forearms are pointing vertically upwards (butterfly position). In this variation, push the elbows backwards using rocking movements.
