Doorframe Stretch
Filed Under Exercises |
To get a good whole side stretch, try the “doorframe” stretch.
Position yourself in the -open- door, placing your outside foot over your inside foot (which is the foot closes to the doorframe). The inside leg is slightly bent.
With inside hand grip doorframe at waistlevel and your outside arm grips the frame overhead. Now straighten the legs and push away from the frame. (you’re hanging from the frame).
This stretch should be felt from your hip to upper arm. By slightly moving forward or backwards with your body you might be able to change the stretch more towards the front/back of your body.
Hold it for 30 seconds and repeat 2 times on each side.
