Scorpio

Description

Lie face down with your arms out to the sides at approximately 90° of shoulder abduction, elbows straight, and palms resting on the floor. From this position, lift one leg by extending your hip, then bring it across your body toward the floor on the opposite side. Allow your pelvis and trunk to rotate while gradually opening your hip and knee. Keep both shoulders and arms in contact with the floor as much as possible to promote thoracic and lumbar spine rotation. Hold the position for one deep breath, then slowly return to the starting position before repeating the movement on the opposite side.
