sandeyeMy Routine: 5.5 Standing Spinal Twist
November 5th 2007 19:53
Recently, at this point in my routine, I have been including the Standing Spinal twist. I have found it in only two books so far, and in one it is only mentioned briefly under the exercises listed for pregnancy. Whereas I am not currently in such state, I recognize a need to exercise my spine, so have added the move in between my standing poses. Having both problems with my lower back and often a stiff neck, I find these two recently commenced spinal twist postures assist.
Whilst standing upright, extend the arms out sideways and cross the legs. You then twist around towards the direction of the leg which is foremost. Try to twist using the entire spine, not just the waist or only the neck. Returning to the center, trade front legs, and repeat in the opposing direction.
