How To Perform The World’s Greatest Stretch
Less than one minute to hit all of the major muscles!
Whether you dislike stretching or you’re simply tight for time, there is one movement out there that is perfect for you. Not only does this short exercise enhance your mobility in key joints, but it can also lengthen some of the tightest tissues in our body — especially the ones that tend to be extra grumpy while sitting — including the hamstrings, hip flexors, and low back. The best part? You can do all this in the same time it takes to brush your teeth.
