How to properly perform a side stretch?

Stretching exercise:

  • abdominal and back muscles

Position: Place your feet shoulder-width apart or slightly wider. Bend your knees slightly. Rest your left hand on your lower back. Pull in your stomach and straighten your back. Raise your right arm sideways and, keeping your hips still, bend your upper body to the left.

Recommendations: Hold this position for 20-40 seconds. Breathe. Repeat in the opposite direction. You can do several repetitions on each side.

Tip: Feet wider than shoulders. Knees slightly bent. Do not lean your torso forward.
