]]>Sit down on a chair and interlock your fingers behind your head. Pull your elbows back until you feel your chest stretch. Hold the position for about 5 seconds and perform ten reps. What’s particularly great about this stretch is that it’s quick and convenient. In fact, you can do it at work between Zoom meetings.
Lie flat on the ground face down with your arms flat at your sides. Lift one leg up and keep the other leg on the ground, rotating the raised leg around the other to create the scorpion position. Use the arm on the side of the moving leg to support the rotation, pressing lightly on the floor. Hold for three to five second and perform 10 reps.
Start off on all fours and extend one arm straight out to the side. Push your shoulder to the floor and rotate away from the extended arm. Only descend to a depth that is comfortable before repeating the motion on the other side.

]]>To improve posture and relieve tightness in the chest muscles caused by hunching, stand up straight with your feet hip-width apart. Interlace your fingers behind your back, straighten your arms, and gently lift them while squeezing your shoulder blades together. Move at a slow, comfortable pace, stopping when you feel a sense of mild discomfort. Hold for 15-30 seconds, and repeat for 3-5 repetitions.
For a deeper stretch in the entire front body, Camel Pose is especially effective. On a yoga mat or other comfortable surface, begin by kneeling with your knees hip-width apart, placing your hands on your lower back with your fingers pointing downward. When you feel stable, gently arch your back and push your hips forward. Hold for 15-30 seconds. When you’re ready to release, lower your hips and slowly return to an upright seated position, lifting your head up last.
Lunges are ideal for releasing tension in the quadriceps and psoas. Start in a “proposal position” by kneeling on your right knee with your left foot in front of you at a 90-degree angle. Keeping your upper body straight, push your hips forward until you feel a stretch in your right hip flexor. If you’d like to deepen the stretch further, you can try bending your right knee and gently pulling your right foot toward your buttocks. Hold for 15-30 seconds, then repeat on the other side.
