Forward Bend

This movement pulls the muscles that extend along the thighs to the abdomen. Way, sit on the floor or mat, feet tight and straightened. Then bow as if kissing knees while both hands trying to touch your toes.

In a sitting position, the forward bend can be bent until the chin is close to the knee. Do it several times.

Back Bend

Still hard? Arif suggests another easier action, kneeling, then pushing his hips forward and pulling his arms back until his back and stomach muscles are attracted.

This movement is done to stretch the muscles called by Arif 'down' due to the influence of gravity. 'The fall of these body muscles causes the appearance to be less fresh.

The act of lengthening itself is like stretching the body in general. Stretching can be done with such a back up that is to hesitate the body by pulling back muscles to the back of the chest and abdominal muscles are attracted.

Or, Other stretching can be done on other muscles such as thighs, waist, or any other combination.

movement like someone just woke up and twisted his own body to the left or right. This movement serves to flex the stiff waist.

Twist can be done with various types of poses, ranging from sitting while doing lengthening, or while lying down. All the fun.

Inverse

Inverse includes a challenging movement. It has a principle that is almost similar to lengthening, which is against gravity but by way of overturning the body.

"The principle is like going against gravity," said Arif.

This action has the effect of draining the blood that usually follows the fall of gravity, now turned toward the head.
