Benefits:
Arm scissors improve shoulder mobility, coordination, and endurance. They target the deltoids, trapezius, and upper back muscles. This exercise is effective for warming up the shoulders, increasing range of motion, and enhancing upper body flexibility. Additionally, it helps activate the muscles of the upper arms and shoulders, promoting better posture and overall shoulder health.
