Description

Sit up straight on a chair, without leaning your back against the backrest, and place your hands on your knees. Pull your chin in and slowly roll your back forward until you feel a slight stretch, then return to the starting position and arch your back until you feel a slight stretch in your abdominals or tension in your lower back. Alternate between these two positions.
