Steps:
• Lie on your back with legs spread apart from each other (wider than shoulder-width) and extend your hands overhead.
• As you breathe out, tighten your core, lift your arms to the sky and slowly roll and twist your upper body up, reaching your right hand towards your left foot. Hold for 2 counts.

• Repeat and twist to the opposite side.
