  1. REVERSE SNOW ANGEL


Begin by lying fl at on your stomach, with arms by your side and
palms facing the fl oor (for comfort, you may want to have a towel
positioned underneath your forehead).


Now, squeeze your shoulder blades together while lifting your
hands a few inches off the fl oor.


Keeping your shoulders squeezed and your hands off the fl oor,
move your arms out to the side and up so that they are in line with
your ears.


Pause here for a moment before returning to the starting position.
Try to keep your hands off the fl oor for the entire set.



  1. HALF PLANK


Rest your forearms and palms on the fl oor, with your elbows directly
underneath your shoulders so your arms are parallel.


Extend your legs behind you. Your body should form one straight line
from your head to your heels, with no lifting or sagging at the waist and
no rounding through the back.


Squeeze your entire core, your glutes and your quads, and tuck your
backside under a little to keep your lower back in good alignment.


Position your head so your neck is in a neutral position and your
gaze is on your hands. Hold this position.
