W all Stretch




Standing up against a wall, reach your hands up as high as
possible while getting on you tip toes. Keep your spine flat
against the wall as much as possible. Each repetition should
last between 4-6 seconds. This stretch is harder than it
looks because you are keeping your spine flat against the
wall.

Standing with your arms straight out at shoulder level, twist
your upper body to the left and right while your legs and
hips remain still. The twist to each side should last between
2-4 seconds.






Super Stretch #2




Standing up, face 4 inches (10 cm) from a wall, reach as far
up onto the wall as possible getting on your tip toes. Each
repetition should last about 3-5 seconds.

raise one of your legs as high and as far up as possible.
Now repeat with the other leg. Keep your legs straight.

and touch your toes. Keep your legs as straight as possible.
You can bend your knees a little if need be. Each repetition
should last between 2-3 seconds.


Bar Twist

your left and right. Twist to one side and stretch, then twist

Upper Body Slant



Sitting on the edge of a slant board with your legs straight,
