Stand with your knees slightly soft, holding a dumbbell at chest level.  Keep your pelvis stable as you rotate your rib cage right and left, to complete one rep. Be sure to keep your abs pulled toward your spine as you twist from side to side.  Do 20 total, 10 on each side.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Bent Over Back Stretch

Stand facing the back of a chair with your feet shoulder-width apart. Take hold of the chair back with your hands. You should be leaning forward a bit. Keeping your back straight, move your body forward at the hips. It’s okay if you need to bend your knees a little.  Keep moving your body down until you feel a stretch in your shoulders and along your back. Your back will probably end up parallel with the ground, or your head may even go below your shoulders.  Hold for 15 seconds

Hip Flexor Sprinter Stretch

While standing, place your knee on a chair as shown. Next, bend your stance knee to stretch the front of the thigh on the leg that is on the chair.Hold for 15 seconds before repeating on the the opposite leg.
