The easy spinal twist is a basic rotational bodyweight movement that increases stability in the core and spinal region while improving mobility in the hips.
Instructions
Lie on your back on the floor with your knees pulled in to your chest. This is your starting position.
Extend one leg and pull the opposite knee across your body while keeping your shoulder blades pinned to the floor. Extend your arm and turn your head to look away from the side you are twisting toward. Keep the other hand holding the knee. Hold for one minute and then return to starting position to repeat in the opposite direction.
Trainer’s Tips
Avoid pulling too strongly. Ease into every stretch.
