Standing Forward Bend Clasped Elbows Stand with your feet hips-width distance apart. Take a breath in, and as you exhale, hinge at the hips, folding over your thighs. Bend the arms and take hold of opposite elbows. Keep your weight pressing forward as you enjoy this stretch for the lower back and hamstrings for five breaths.
