Cross your arms over your chest, one over the other, and draw them back to the same position. Repeat this exercise to work your shoulders.Afterwards, bring your hands down to your sides, this time with your hands cupped. With your cupped hands pointed in front of you, bring your hands up with some force, bending at the elbow so only your forearm is moving.

Bring your hands together like you’re clapping, with straight arms and relaxed shoulders.In addition to working the chest, this hot tub exercise can also work the back and shoulder blades by doing it backwards.AbdominalsIn a sitting position with shoulders submerged, cross your arms together on top of your chest like you’re giving yourself a hug.
