Sets: 2-3

Reps: 10 (5 each side)

• Lie on your back with your knees and hips at 90/90. Extend the arms straight up.

• Inhale with inner range breathing, allow the ribcage to expand gently.

• Exhale as you draw in your core, extending opposite arm and leg.

  • Avoid letting your back arch off the mat.

• Inhale once your legs are back at 90/90.

• Exhale, draw in and switch sides.

• Make sure the abs are drawing in vs pushing out throughout the entire range of motion.

Modifications:

• Decrease the range of motion as needed. Only go as far as you can control.

• Shorten the lever by bending the knee instead of extended the leg straight out. You can also bend the elbow.

• Tap the heel closer to your butt instead of farther away.
