Back Stretches With A Ball
Hug a BallThe hug-a-ball stretch is exactly what it sounds like. You stretch your back as you relax your body and hug a ball, causing your back to round and stretch. You perform the exercise is performed in a squatted position close to the floor so you can rest your weight on the ball and allow your lower back to relax. Low squats are an effective exercise for releasing lower back tension without the ball, but the ball gives you something to hold onto for balance. Begin with your feet about shoulder-width apart and squat all the way down so your hips are below your knees. Roll a ball between your knees and against the front of your body. Wrap your arms around the ball to hold it in place and lean forward slightly to allow the ball to take your weight. You may feel a stretch in your glutes (buttocks) and calves, too.
PyramidThe pyramid stretch is another lower back stretch. You do this exercise, however, in a prone position, lying face down on the ball. Place your hands on the floor and the ball under your stomach. Hold your neck straight in line with your spine. Roll the ball back under your hips and thighs as you raise your legs straight toward the ceiling. Your upper body will tilt toward the floor so your forearms rest on the ground and your head is a few Panerai Luminor Watches
