How to do it

  1. Lie face down with your arms stretched out to the sides, palms down, and your chin resting toward the floor.
  2. Lift one leg, bend the knee, and sweep it up and across your body toward the opposite side - reaching the foot toward the floor behind you like a scorpion curling its tail - then bring it back and repeat with the other leg, alternating sides.
  3. Keep your chest and arms anchored to the floor and let the twist travel through your hips and lower back, going only as far as the stretch stays comfortable.
