My dad taught me this.

Stand in a doorway. This works best if it's a doorway between two rooms with no actual door attached. Spread your arms as far as you can, until the doorway blocks your hands. Press your hands against the door frame as hard as possible, and hold this position for at least 60 seconds. Next, step forward and try to drop your arms. Let them go as limp as they can and see what happens!

If you do it right, it's kind of spooky.

I remember that! It's lots of fun. I used to do that when I was little.

I cant believe I actually tried this but there it is I did !

My arms are too long, they.re right up aginst my shoulders and Im not getting leverage thus causing discomfort in various lateral and deltoid or plexus something. After about 2 seconds I said hey Ive had enough of this ! So I went and had a slice of (real) pie instead.

:)
