Seated Knee-up Rotation Stretch

How to do it

Inhale to lengthen your spine before rotating further into the stretch.

1. 1

   Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.

2. 2

   Bend one knee and place the foot flat on the floor outside the opposite knee.

3. 3

   Twist your torso towards the bent knee, using your elbow against the outside of the knee for leverage.

4. 4

   Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, then switch sides and repeat.

Common mistakes

• ✕Letting the bent knee drift inward
• ✕Hunching the shoulders during the twist
