Although massages are excellent, there are times when you desire more. Sure, you can get the benefits of a massage by scheduling regular sessions with your favorite masseuse, but what if you want to take your back-scratching game to the next level? I rounded up 3 exercises that will have your muscles screaming in delight.
1. Lats Roll : This exercise is great for targeting your lats and working them out while also improving range of motion and flexibility in your shoulders and spine. To begin, lie on one side with one bent leg resting on the floor. Grab onto that leg with both hands and lift it up toward your chest holding the stretch for at least 20 seconds before lowering back down. Repeat this on both sides before switching legs.
2) Neck Roll: This exercise can be done while sitting or standing and is the perfect way to release stress in your neck and upper back area. Grab a pillow or towel (you can use this towel as a resistance band) and place it under your shoulders so that they are slightly elevated off the ground. Then slowly roll from side to side for 20 seconds each direction. Repeat this exercise three times per day for best results!
3) Kneeling Twist: To perform this exercise, kneel down on one knee with your other leg extended behind you at about waist height. Then twist left and right for 10 seconds each direction three times per day for best results!
