The Standing Side Bend Stretch is a lateral stretch that targets the sides of your torso. Stand with feet hip-width apart and gently bend sideways, lengthening the muscles along your waist.

Motion
- Inhale deeply, lengthening your spine.
- Exhale slowly, bending gently to one side without leaning forward or backward.
- Feel the stretch along the side of your torso.
- Hold the position and breathe deeply.
- Switch sides when prompted by the timer.
Tips
- Initiate the movement from your waist, not your shoulders, for an effective stretch.
- Avoid leaning forward or backward to maintain focus on the lateral stretch.
