I tried this yoga expert's five mobility moves and they quickly released tension in my shoulders and back

A woman in black sportswear rotates her upper body and looks over her shoulder. She stands in front of a bright blue wall.

I'm a personal trainer who runs multiple fitness classes every week. I love it, but it means my body is pretty much always achy. I do my best to stretch and maintain my flexibility, but with two young daughters I don’t always have time.

That’s why this short mobility routine by yoga instructor Emily Mouu caught my eye. Featuring just five exercises and no equipment (apart from a nearby wall for support), Mouu says they can help alleviate shoulder pain and improve a bad posture so I tested the routine to see if it could reduce muscle soreness in my upper back.
