Another exercise is to stand erect and keep your feet in line with your shoulders and slightly apart. Bend your knees slightly and lock your fingers behind your head and bend starting at the waistline, touching your right knee with your right elbow. Standing upright again, do the same exercise on your left side. Extend backwards until you are standing erect again and repeat three times.
In an upright position, move your feet apart and bend your knees. Lift your arms to the height of your shoulders and grip your hands while turning to the side, starting at your waistline. Do this exercise on the opposite side to the count of five. Turn the upper section of your body only, keeping your hips and legs still.
