Day 25: Lunge & Twist

What this exercise is for:

  • Dynamic stretch and activation of the lower body.

  • Mobility for the spine and torso.

How to do it:

  • Lunge forward with your right leg, stepping far enough forward that your right knee remains over your right foot.

  • Lower your body to where your left knee is just hovering or lightly in contact with the ground, but not supporting your bodyweight.

  • In the lowered position, twist your upper body in the direction of your right knee, using your arms to help get some momentum.

  • Aim to keep your hips facing forward throughout the movement (do not rotate at the hips).

  • Stand up and switch sides. Repeat 4-6 times.
