Warm Up 

Cat Cow - 5x

  • Make sure your knees are aligned with your hips, feet a planted with your weight in your heels, and hands are on your knees
  • As you inhale, arch your lower back and hips up and back and your neck and head towards the ceiling
  • Keep your core tight as you exhale, tuck your tailbone in, dropping your head to look towards your belly button, and arch your back like a scared cat


Inchworms - 10x

  • Stand up straight
  • Reach your arms down to the ground
  • Walk your hands away from your feet
  • Enter a plank position and hold briefly
  • Slowly walk your hands back towards your feet
  • With a slight bend in your knees slowly return to standing straight


Hip Hinge - 10x

  • Stand straight with a slight bend in your knees
  • Take a deep inhale
  • When you reach the top of your breath, slowly bend forward at the waist keeping a straight spine
  • Slowly exhale, pressing your belly button into your spine as your lower your upper body
  • Stop when your chest is parallel with the floor
  • Feel the stretch in your hamstrings
  • Let your arms hang at your sides for a moment
  • Ground yourself through your heels 
  • Slowly return to the starting position as you inhale
