How to perform it

  1. Stand with your hands together, arms extended directly in front of you. This will be your starting position.
  2. Keeping your arms straight, quickly move your arms back as far as possible and back in again, similar to an exaggerated clapping motion. Repeat 5-10 times, increasing speed as you do so.

Muscles worked

The Dynamic Chest Stretch primarily targets your Chest, with support from your Middle Back. No equipment needed — train it anywhere.

Make it count toward your goal

Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the Dynamic Chest Stretch slots into a plan built for your goal — sets, reps and progression auto-suggested, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly review that adapts what comes next.
