Shoulder Rolls
Shoulder Roll is a simple yet effective exercise for relieving tension, improving shoulder mobility, and promoting better posture.

Step 1: Stand or sit upright with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms relaxed by your sides. Keep your spine neutral and shoulders relaxed.

Step 2: Slowly lift your shoulders toward your ears in a controlled motion, engaging your upper trapezius muscles.

Step 3: Roll your shoulders back in a circular motion, squeezing your shoulder blades together as you bring them down. Maintain smooth and controlled movement.

Step 4: Perform 10–15 repetitions in a backward direction, then repeat in a forward direction. Complete 2–3 sets as needed.

This exercise helps reduce shoulder stiffness, relieve tension from prolonged sitting, and improve overall shoulder mobility.
