Instructions:
- 1Start on your hands and knees with hands directly under your shoulders and knees directly under your hips.
- 2Round your back towards the ceiling, pulling your abdominals to your spine and tucking your tailbone down.
- 3Hold this position for five to ten seconds, feeling the stretch in your back and abdominals.
- 4Release the pose, letting your belly drop down towards the floor as you lift your head and tailbone up.
- 5Repeat this cycle for five to ten times.
Tips:
- Keep your knees shoulder-width apart and your hands directly under your shoulders
- Stretch till you feel a mild tension and hold, not to the point of pain.
- Breathe deeply and slowly, exhaling as you round your back and inhaling as you let it sink down.
- Feel the stretch in your latissimus dorsi, lower back, and trapezius muscles during each cycle.
