Stretch and Surrender: #15 Triceps Stretch

Benefits: Stretches the triceps muscles

METHOD: Sit or stand. Raise your right arm behind your head. Bend the arm at the elbow, resting the right hand behind the neck. Hold your right elbow with your left hand and gently pull your elbow toward your head as far as it will go comfortably. Breathe deeply. Hold for 20-30 seconds. Repeat on the other side. Do 3 to 5 repetitions on each side.

Tip: This is a wonderful stretch for any upper body activities (golf, racquet sports, upper body weight-training, etc).
