Don't forget people who say, I have a sore back. So I'm going to see the video. The video said there's nothing wrong with my back, I need to strengthen my core. So, I've been doing the plank challenge for the last 21 days. And now my back's even worse. Your idea here is to give you a safe series of stretches and strengthening exercises to work your core, okay, which is essentially your whole body so that you build your body up from the inside out.
Really simple. You start on all fours. Hands up your shoulders, knees and your hips. Okay? You breathe in. As you breathe out.
Bring the top of your back back towards the ceiling. Okay, and then bring the top of your back down towards the floor. Okay, this is the kind of recap. You want to get as much round out of your back as possible. In here. You want to get as much holler and get back to us.
You're really thinking of your spine like straw, and you want to push and pull that straw to make it as mobile as possible. Okay? Keep your breathing nice and fluid, still your labs here at your lungs here. fill your lungs. Yes, I breathe it. There pure luck here.
Good. Now take your right hand, reach up towards the ceiling, look at the heart. Pour into the hole here. That's the left. And if you can just say if we hadn't done that, if you've got those rows, you can then read them again. Reach the heart, lungs, breathe out.
Capital flow. When you need to breathe in again. Move again. Head and out. Good, good. You downside.
Okay, hands up to the shoulders. You You're gonna breathe in as you breathe out. Read and reach. Noticing if you got I got last one. Hey, Alan up. Good.
Now come on to all fours again, hold your hands on your shoulders, nothing changes. All you're going to do now is levitate. Okay? So keep your elbow soft. The back of your neck is towards the ceiling. You're going to breathe out and lift your knees, tiny bit of a drop down.
If you can see this on the camera. It's a tiny, tiny move. All I'm doing is making my body light pushing through my feet. I'm lifting my knees, not changing the distribution of my weight. My race is still on my hands and on my knees and then on top of my feet when I put my body down due tomorrow it's basically a tiny little coating black, tiny, not passive and not to be underestimated. Okay, then you're gonna lie on your side.
Okay, stretch your arms out. Line up the Kiehl's with your bank behind. Keep your feet together, open one knee. Alright. I'm breathing out. I'm not sending my hips forward, keeping one foot on top of the other so that I can feel my bum.
Starting to get hot. You want to get too hot in this one. Okay, usually happens quite quick. If it's not happening. Check how your heels are in relation to your button and check that you're not swaying your hips backwards. Guess where your hips backwards.
That's not what we're looking for. All right. Now you probably done about five or six. That's good. Or your band maybe got hot people which case start with the people used to Great. Okay, now come on to the plant.

If this is hurting you if you can't lift top and bottom, left, top and bottom. I can see so talk. It takes the pressure off the bottom of your back, okay and sometimes makes them even more doable. So if you want, start with the seesaw, and then move up to the Superman bridge does imagine you fly into space. Pretty easy. Breathe in, you're going to do one.
