Cat Cow Stretch
Expert Advice
Focus on the articulation of your spine, moving one vertebra at a time. This will enhance the stretch and improve spinal mobility.
How-to-do Steps
- Start on your hands and knees in a tabletop position, with your wrists under your shoulders and knees under your hips.
- Inhale as you arch your spine downward, lifting your head and tailbone up towards the ceiling (Cow position).
- Exhale as you round your spine up towards the ceiling, tucking your chin to your chest and drawing your navel to your spine (Cat position).
- Continue to alternate between Cow and Cat positions for the desired number of repetitions.
