ABS

Up Dog

BeginnerBodyweight

A yoga-derived pose that stretches the front of the torso and eases the lower back. Dropping the hips while pressing through straight arms lengthens the spine and abs. A useful mid-session reset that helps flexibility and posture.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Start in a straight-body plank with hands under your shoulders and feet about hip width apart.

  2. 2

    Let your hips sink toward the floor as you point your toes back behind you.

  3. 3

    Keep your arms straight and press your chest forward and up.

  4. 4

    Ease into it until you feel a comfortable stretch across the front of your torso.

  5. 5

    Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, breathing steadily.
