Kneeling Back Rotation Stretch
Equipment
Keeping your hands directly beneath your shoulders and your knees directly under your hips, slowly sit back onto your heels, keeping your back straight and your head in a neutral position.
Extend one arm out in front of you at shoulder height, then slowly rotate your upper body and reach the same arm towards the ceiling, keeping your eyes on your hand.
Hold this position for about 20 to 30 seconds, feeling a stretch in your back and shoulder.
Slowly return to the starting position and repeat the exercise with the other arm.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: Slowly rotate your upper body and reach one hand towards the ceiling while looking at your hand. Do not rush this movement; it should be slow and controlled. Avoid the common mistake of using jerky or fast movements which can put unnecessary strain on your back and neck. Balanced Stretch: Make sure to perform the stretch on both sides to maintain a balanced flexibility. Neglecting one side can result in imbalances which can lead to injuries. Keep the Spine Neutral: It's essential to keep your spine in a neutral position throughout the exercise. Avoid the common mistake of arching or rounding your back, which can lead to strain or injury.
