Overhead triceps stretch
An overhead stretch for the back of the upper arm, with the elbow pointing up.
How to do it
- Stand or sit tall.
- Raise one arm, bend the elbow and let the hand rest between your shoulder blades.
- With the other hand, gently ease the elbow back.
Remember
Elbow points up; let the hand drop behind your head.
Take care
Keep your ribs soft and don’t arch your lower back.
Stretch gently and never into pain. StretchUp gives general guidance and is not a medical device.
