How to perform it
Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart. Extend your arms straight out in front of you, parallel to the ground. Cross your arms in front of your body, with your right arm over your left arm. Interlock your fingers and rotate your palms away from your body. Slowly raise your arms up and away from your body, feeling a stretch in your back and chest. Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, then release. Repeat on the opposite side.
