Overhead 90-To-90 Reach

90 to 90 Overhead Reach Stretch

1. Starting Position:

   • Sit on the floor with your left leg bent at a 90-degree angle in front of you, and your right leg bent at a 90-degree angle behind you, forming a “90-to-90” position.

   • Your left foot should be directly in front of your left knee and your right foot pointed backward behind your right knee.

2. Hand Position:

   • Place your left hand on the floor beside your left hip for support.

   • Raise your right arm overhead, reaching towards the ceiling.

3. Movement:

   • As you inhale, lengthen through your right side, reaching your right arm upwards.

   • As you exhale, lean your torso gently to the left, feeling the stretch along your right side.

4. Hold Position:

   • Hold the stretch for 15 to 30 seconds, breathing deeply and relaxing into the stretch.

   • Ensure your left shoulder is relaxed and away from your ear.

5. Returning:

   • Slowly return to the starting position by lifting your torso and lowering your right arm back to the floor.

6. Switch Sides:

   • Repeat the stretch on the opposite side by switching your leg positions (right leg in front and left leg in back) and raising your left arm overhead.

7. Repetitions:

   • Perform this stretch 2 to 4 times on each side, focusing on your breath and maintaining a comfortable range of motion.
