  1. This exercise works your Triceps
  2. Like any exercise this should be pain free or shouldn’t increase existing pain levels, during, after and the next day.
  3. It is normal to feel some delayed onset muscle soreness between 48-72 hours but this should be manageable
  4. Holding a dumbbell in each hand lean forwards at your hips but keep your back straight
  5. Next bring you elbows as far up towards the ceiling as you can go so that your upper arms are behind your body
  6. The upper arm is to now stay in this position throughout
  7. Next straight your elbows taking your little fingers up towards the ceiling and slowly lower back down

Online Physiotherapy

Put simply this is Physio done via either telephone or video over the internet. Skype and facetime are examples of this.

Contrary to popular belief online physiotherapy can be very effective and it can help the same injuries that face to face physio can help. I have helped many people with injuries such as disc prolapses, tennis elbow, neck pain and much more).
