Back Exercises: Side Stretch
To start, sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Shift your weight slightly forward to avoid rounding your back. Relax. Keep your ears, shoulders, and hips aligned.
Stretch your right arm overhead.
Slowly bend to the left. Don't twist your torso.
Hold for 20 seconds. Return to starting position.
Repeat 2 times. Then, switch to the other side.
