No equipment Abdominals

The Overhead Stretch is a stretching movement that targets your abdominals. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Overhead Stretch

  1. Stand or sit tall and reach both arms straight overhead, interlacing your fingers if comfortable.
  2. Lengthen through your spine as you press your palms upward and lean gently to one side.
  3. Hold each side for the prescribed duration, breathing into the stretch.
  4. Avoid arching your lower back — keep your core lightly braced.
