Week 5
1. (2/5 difficulty)
- go into a cobra position
- squeeze your lower back
- slowly let go of your hands
- try to stay in the cobra position, but without your hands
- this will strengthen your lower back
2. (2/5 difficulty)
- you need a wall
- go into a cobra position, again, but bend your legs
- now scoot to against the wall (with your bent legs next to the wall)
- now, pushing up with your arms, try and get your head to your feet
3. (2/5 difficulty)
- you need a friend
- tell your friend to look at you, then wrap their hands around your waist
- hold your hands up straight in the air
- lean back and be supported by the person that is "hugging" you
- come back up and repeat process
4. (2/5 difficulty)
- go into a bridge
- make sure that both if your legs are straight
- lift up your good leg towards the sky/ceiling and hold it there
- do this with your other leg
- this helps with the lower back and your back scale
5. (3/5 difficulty)
- you need a friend again
- (if you don't have any friends, like me, ask your mom)
- lie down on your stomach and keep your arms out straight in front of you
- tell your friend to stand over you, and have their feet at about your hips
- tell your friend, without moving his or her feet, to grab your hands and pull up, stretching your back
- now, once in a somewhat comfortable position, clap against your friend's hands, and feel your lower back get stronger
