45 Degree Side Bend

Instructions

1. Stand upright with feet shoulder-width apart and arms relaxed at your sides.
2. Bend your torso sideways toward one hip at roughly a 45-degree angle, sliding the hand down the leg and feeling the obliques on the opposite side stretch.
3. Contract the side abdominals to pull the torso back up to an upright position.
4. Repeat for the prescribed reps, then perform the same on the other side.
