What’s inside

Everything from the video, plus a few things that aren’t in it.

1

The warm-up

Wrists, neck, shoulders, back, and hips. Yes, I will ask you to smell your armpit.

2

10 steps to your backbend

You start with a shoulder bridge and end with the real thing. Check off each step as you go.

3

3 quick tips

Elbow eyes. No duck feet. Hips up. They sound silly and they help a lot.

4

A 6-week tracker

Do your five minutes. Check the box. Feel proud.

Watch the video first

The guide follows this video step by step, so you can watch once and then practice with the pages.

Five minutes. That’s the whole deal.

Print it, stick it on the wall, and do a little every day. If something feels sharp instead of stretchy, stop for today.

General mobility, not medical advice. Bodies vary day to day.
