Cat Up & Cat Down
Begin Cats Up/Cats Down by placing both hands on the floor directly under the shoulders.
Position both of your knees directly under the hips, eyes looking down and back flat. Distribute your weight evenly.
Smoothly round your back upward towards the ceiling as your head curls under to form the Cats Up position. Continue to arch the lower back up until it is rounded. Keep the arms straight throughout the exercise. Hold this position for 30 seconds.
Round the lower back down towards the floor as you extend your head and you’re your hips upward. Again, keep your arms straight throughout the entire movement. Continue to round your back until a stretch is felt across the lower back. Hold this stretch for 30 seconds.
Alternate between the Cats Up and Cats Down positions for 2-3 sets
