Glutes and Low Back: Lying Twist

  • Lying on your back, extend your arms out to your sides. Bend your knees and cross your right leg over your left.
  • Slowly rotate your knees to the right, allowing them to come to the floor. It's OK if your left shoulder comes off the floor. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Then slowly bring the knees back to the centre.
  • Reverse directions and twist to the left. Repeat as needed.

This stretch feels great for the low back, but the configuration of the legs intensifies the stretch for the glutes.
