A well-spent morning is the key to a successful day. Today we offer you another morning ritual - mini-exercises, which will give you energy for the whole day!

This small stretching exercise consists of only five exercises and will take you no more than 10 minutes. The main thing is to get out of bed!

Exercise 1

This exercise is called "Dancing Dog": from the "Downward Dog" pose, you need to smoothly go into the "Upward Dog" pose, and then back. Great dynamic stretching! Do 15-20 reps. One repetition consists of a bunch of these two poses.

Exercise 2

The second exercise is an open bar in stride. Lunge forward with your right foot. Turn towards this leg, resting your left hand on the floor, and with your right hand stretch upward (your hands should be in one line), opening your chest. Do 15-20 reps on each side.

Exercise # 3

The third exercise is a light dynamic lunge stretch. Make sure that the knee is bent at a 90 degree angle, the pelvis does not rise high when you spring, and the other knee touches the floor. Do 15-20 reps for each leg.

Exercise 4

The fourth exercise has two options: simple and advanced. In the simple version, you leave your feet on the floor, lean back slightly and do side twists to the sides, touching the floor with your fingers. By choosing the advanced version, you raise your crossed legs a little above the floor and try to keep them in this position. Be sure to watch your back: it should be straightened, the spine should be stretched. Perform 15-20 repetitions. One rep - two side crunches.

Exercise # 5

And the last exercise is a modification of the previous one. In the simplified version, you raise your legs one at a time. In the advanced version, straighten both legs at the same time from a raised position and return them back, trying not to touch the floor. Perform 15-20 repetitions.
