Exercise:

  1. While sitting on a chair, lean forward with your hand between your knees.
  2. For a greater stretch, move your arms toward the back of the chair's legs.
  3. Hold for 10 seconds to feel the 'stretch' in your middle and lower portions of your back.
  4. To return, put elbows on your knees and push up.

Performance tips:
If you have high or low blood pressure, avoid this stretch.

Repetitions:
