Cat and camel with hands flat

Cat and camel with hands flat

The cat and camel stretch helps to stretch your spine and helps with improving the mobility of your trunk.
Start on your hands and knees, with your knees directly underneath your hips and your hands underneath your shoulders, and your back in a neutral position.
Place your hands flat on the floor and contract your abdominal muscles, making sure that your spine is well aligned with your back straight as a table-top.
Inhale, and arch your spine away from the floor, pulling your belly up like a cat.
When it comes time to exhale, round your spine in the opposite direction, lowering your belly towards the floor and lifting your head.
Rest for a few seconds and repeat as directed.
