Support yourself on Parallettes with your feet resting on the ground.
While keeping your arms straight, perform slow shoulder circles, letting your body move around your shoulder joint.
Make the circles as wide as possible, exploring the four quadrants of this position: Shoulder depression, Shoulder protraction, Shoulder elevation and Shoulder retraction.

Logging: Each circle (whichever direction) = one repetition.
