Chest, Shoulders and Forearm Stretches

To be effective with stretching, you should stretch before and after you excercise.
Hold each stretch for 10 - 30 seconds. Repeat this 3 times for each muscle group.
Do not bounce the stretch.
If pain is felt during any stretch, call PHIT (UK) to check that you are not creating injuries.
