10-15 or more. I do it with a program on PBS called Body Electric. You don't really count the reps, you just do it with the music. Each song lasts 3 1/2 to 4 minutes.
There are a couple exercises for the rotator cuff. In one (holding 3 pound free weights in your hands) you start with the hands up, so that they're over the elbows. Then slowly lower your hands until your hands are under your elbows. Then lift them again until they're over your elbows. Your upper arms should be straight out, and your elbows should lined up with your shoulders. It looks like this:

They have better pictures to explain the exercise.
For some others, try:

Hope these help!
