Jennifer is a big fan of the scarecrow exercise to work and sculpt small muscles that support the shoulder joint, known as your rotator cuff. Adding the lunge to the mix works your back body double time!
- Step your left leg back into a deep lunge, making 90-degree angles with both knees.
- Raise your arms out to the side until your upper arms are parallel to the ground. Bend your elbows to 90 degrees, making a loose fist with your hands.
- Hold the lunge while you rotate your upper arms forward to bring your fists to the floor, and then rotate the upper arm backward to bring the fists up. Do not lower or raise your upper arms — keep them parallel to the floor. This completes one rep.
- Do 15 reps, and then lunge with your left leg back for 15 more reps to complete a set.
