Rolling Lower Body

Start: Lie on your back, arms overhead, feet hip-width apart. Let everything from the waist up go completely relaxed.

Action:

1. Bring one knee up and reach it across your body toward the opposite hip, turning your hips that way.

2. Your upper body stays relaxed and behind — the legs pull it over about halfway through, and it follows the hips the rest of the way.

3. To come back: reach the same leg diagonally back across your body and roll onto your back. The arms just follow. Repeat, then switch sides.

Feel: Say out loud anything you notice — effort, tightness, which side flows better. If the relaxed half of your body starts helping, the drill isn't working.
