Raise your right arm over your head, keeping your left arm down by your side.
Slowly bend your body to the left side, keeping your right arm stretched overhead and your left arm hanging down.
Hold the position for a few seconds, feeling the stretch along the right side of your body.
Return to the starting position and repeat the exercise on the other side by raising your left arm and bending to the right.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movements: The exercise should be performed with slow, controlled movements. Avoid jerking or making sudden movements as this can cause muscle strain. Instead, focus on a smooth, fluid motion as you bend to the side. Equal Stretch on Both Sides: A common mistake is to favor one side over the other. Ensure you are bending equally to both sides to maintain balance and symmetry in your workout. Keep Your Core Engaged: Engaging your core throughout the exercise will not only help you maintain balance but also intensify the workout. A common mistake is to relax the abdomen, which reduces the effectiveness of the exercise and can lead to back strain. Britain
