Spinal Rotation

I wanted to share with you this awesome spinal rotation exercise from high knees.

If you find that this hurts your knees you could modify and do from sitting or place a cushion under your knees or even do standing!

How to:

1. Start in high knees (or one of the alternatives mentioned above)
2. Engage your core muscles, focusing on pulling your belly button towards your spine and drawing your ribs down towards your hips
3. Take your arms out to the side and find length in your spine
4. Inhale to prepare
5. Exhale and rotate through your mid spine to one side
6. Inhale and lower the arm which is now facing back towards the floor
7. Exhale, feel the stretch through the front of your hip, do not let go of your core connection
8. Inhale, come back to upright
9. Exhale, back to the centre
10. Repeat on the other side
11. Try doing this one or two times per day especially after large stints at a desk or sitting to really invigorate your body
