How to do it

  1. Lie on your back with your arms pointing up and your knees bent at 90° over your hips.
  2. Press your lower back into the floor and keep it there.
  3. Lower one arm overhead and the opposite leg straight out, just above the floor.
  4. Return to the start and switch sides.

Watch out: Letting your lower back arch off the floor — shorten the reach instead.
