Tight T-Spine? Try this weeks Agatsu Movement Minute.
•
Here’s a little exercise that I taught our recent course in Hong Kong. It’s great for all those office workers to heavy lifters out there?
•
Start by sitting with straight spine in the 3 point stack.
•
Next placing your hand either in front of your shoulder (level 1) or behind your head (level 2), twist to one side as you exhale bracing in your lumbar spine.
•
Then on your next exhale side bend in your tspine only, lifting your elbow higher. At the end range of your movement take a few deep breaths here opening up the rib cage on that side.
•
Repeat these movements a few times on each side, moving further into the stretch.
•
Always remember if you want to create flexibility in one area, there must be a stable point in another area to use as an anchor point. Use your breath to keep your lumbar spine stable through the exercise.
