Tabletop Bridge Sit on the floor with your legs extended straight out in front of you. Place your palms behind your hips about six to eight inches away, with your fingers pointing away from your body. Keep your hips firmly grounded as you gently press your chest and abs forward. To increase the stretch, lower your head behind you. Flex the feet and hold for 30 seconds. Turn your hands so you fingertips are pointing in, and hold for another 30.
