MOBILITY MOVES

Jarlo Ilano and his colleagues at GMB Fitness have pulled together a range of exercises that cover top-to-toe mobility

UPPER-BODY MOBILITY PRONE BENT-ARM CHEST STRETCH

This stretch targets the chest and front of the shoulder. Begin in the prone position (on your stomach), with one hand on the floor and your elbow bent, and the other arm extended straight on the floor. With your bent arm, press into the floor and shift your weight towards your other hand, to initiate a stretch in your chest. Take your time moving in and out of the stretched position, and try to deepen the stretch with each rep. Once you’re comfortable in this position, move in and out of the stretch 10 times, then hold for 30 seconds. Repeat this sequence for 3 rounds, then repeat on the opposite side.
