Reverse shoulder stretch
For this stretching activity, you may need to stand for a few minutes. But don't worry, it's still easy and it's actually generally good for your productivity to stand up and walk every once in a while.

To do this stretch, interlock your fingers behind you near your butt. Keep your back straight, your shoulder blades together, and push your arms up until you feel the stretch in your body. Do this position for at least 30 seconds.

Cross-body arm stretch
For this stretch, you can do it while standing or sitting. Put one arm over your chest and lock it with your other hand by bending your elbow. Pull the stretched arm toward your chest until you feel a stretch in your shoulder. Hold this for at least 30 seconds before repeating on the other side.
