NEED SOME ENERGY? TRY THIS INSTEAD OF THAT AFTERNOON COFFEE:
Cat Stretch
Setup: Get into a quadruped position with your hands directly under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Your trunk is stable and in a neutral position.
- Exhale and draw your lumbar (lower) spine into flexion, reaching your tailbone toward the floor, and allow your thoracic (middle) spine and pelvis to respond.
- Inhale and move through the neutral spine position, extending your thoracic spine and stabilizing your lumbar spine and pelvis in a neutral position.
