• PROGRESS MAY BE SLOW OR FAST
• BEING CONSISTENT IS IMPORTANT

 

• SO, PERFORM YOUR EXERCISE REGULARLY

 

• BEFORE YOU START YOUR EXERCISE, WARM-UP, AND STRETCHING BOTH ARE VERY IMPORTANT

 

• With warm-up and stretching if your body is stiff it opens up and the muscle group which you are going to train is ready for the exercise
• Also, it minimizes the chances of getting cramps or any type of injuries
• These are the reasons because of which warm-up and stretching both are very important
• Now, let’s start
• We will start with stretching our neck first 
• Move your neck left to right then right to left 10 times
• Then move your neck up and down 10 times

• Making a circle with your neck touch your chin to your chest roll towards left then back and then right finish it with your chin touching to your chest again 
• Also, do this in the opposite direction
• Do this rolling of the neck 10 times on each side
• Now we will stretch our shoulders up and down 10 times
• Move your shoulders front and back 10 times

 

• Also, make a circle with the shoulders
• Start from down the shoulders bring them forward in a circle shape push them back and then finish the circle down 
• Also, repeat this in the opposite direction
