Fitness: Knees side to side (feet up) active warm up

​Great exercise to help the low back! Lie on your back with your feet up, shins parallel to the floor, knees up and together. Have your arms outstretched with your palms up. Draw your abs tight and squeeze the glutes, then slowly let your knees drop to one side. Allow them to fall as far as you can but you must keep both shoulder blades and arms flat on the floor. Hold the stretched position for a few seconds and return knees to the starting position. Keep the abs and glutes tight and let the knees drop to the opposite side. Do not force or bounce into the stretch, ease into it. Repeat as directed.
