Back and Abdominal Stretches

Lower back- Keeping back flat on the ground bend your knees so that the soles of your feet are on the ground with feet together. Arms are straight out to the sides, forming a T. Rotate knees to the right bringing them as close to the ground as you can. Hold for 10-30 seconds. Repeat opposite side.

Chest and Abdomen- Laying with your stomach to the floor, push upper torso up with your arms until the stretch is felt. Tilt the head as far back as possible and hold for 10-30 seconds.

Back- In a tabletop position on all floors start with a flat back. Curl your toes under, tilting your pelvis back so that your tail end sticks up. Drop the stomach down and lift the gaze. Then, bring the tops of your feet back down to the floor, tilt your pelvis forward, tucking your tailbone. Round your back up, drawing your navel toward your spine. Drop your chin down to your chest.
