Shoulder Shrug Exercise

To start, sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Shift your weight slightly forward so you don't round your back. Relax. Keep your ears, shoulders, and hips aligned:

Raise both of your shoulders as high as you can, as if you were trying to touch them to your ears. Keep your head and neck still and relaxed.
Hold for a count of 5. Release.
Repeat 10 times.
