Description of exercise |
The Tall genie exercise is a stretching and strengthening exercise that focuses on improving posture and increasing flexibility. It involves standing tall with the feet hip-width apart and the arms raised above the head, as if reaching for the sky like a genie. From this position, the individual then slowly bends at the waist to one side, reaching the arm towards the floor while keeping the other arm extended upwards. This stretch is held for a few seconds before returning to the starting position and repeating on the other side. The Tall genie exercise helps to lengthen the spine, open up the chest and shoulders, and improve overall body alignment. Regular practice can lead to improved posture, reduced back pain, and increased range of motion. |
