DAY ONE Need to know

Child’s Pose

-

1

Start on your hands and knees and drop your buttocks back onto your heels. 2

Stretch your hands forwards, dropping your head between your shoulders towards the floor. 3 You will feel this stretch through your back and upper arms. 4 Hold this position for up to one minute.

Do this once first thing in the morning, once around lunchtime and again in the evening.

‘Flexibilit­y exercises increase your range of movement,’ says Hannah. ‘The Child’s Pose really opens up your hips,’ says Phil. ‘It helps correct imbalances of your posture by stretching your spine,

hamstrings and glutes.’
