A one-minute rotation drill for the upper back and shoulders, a quick way to unwind a locked-up mid-back.

From all fours, you'll thread one arm under and across, then switch. It's a deeper rotation than it appears, reaching the mid-back and the back of the shoulder in one move.

Desk work grinds thoracic rotation to a halt, and the neck ends up compensating. A short daily twist keeps that range available and takes pressure off the neck.
