1. Start Position: Sit on the floor facing a wall. Position yourself about 1-2 feet away from the wall. 2. Leg Position: Bend your knees at a 90-degree angle, placing your feet flat on the floor. 3. Back Position: Lean back slightly, ensuring your back is straight and your shoulders are pulled back.
Movement:
1. Reach: Lift your feet off the ground and bring your knees towards your chest. Hold onto your ankles or shins for support. 2. Touch: Rotate your torso to one side and extend your arm to touch the wall next to you, with your fingertips or palm meeting the wall. 3. Return: Rotate back to the center, and then repeat on the other side. 4. Repetitions: Alternate sides for a set amount of repetitions (e.g., 10-15 touches on each side), ensuring you maintain controlled movements throughout.
Tips:
- Keep your core engaged to stabilize your body. - Move slowly to avoid straining your back or neck. - Breathe steadily during the exercise.
