Raise the towel overhead, keeping your arms straight.
Lower the towel gently behind your head and down your back. Keep your elbows straight and avoid pain or discomfort.
If flexible enough, continue lowering until you feel a stretch in your shoulders and upper back.
Hold the stretch for 20–30 seconds, breathing deeply.
Slowly raise the towel back overhead to return to the starting position.
Repeat for 2–3 sets.
