Cobra Stretch
A step-by-step guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the movement and what to watch for.
- Equipment
- Bodyweight
HOW TO PERFORM
- Lie face down with the hands under the shoulders and the legs together.
- Press the chest up, keeping the hips and thighs on the floor.
- Draw the shoulders down away from the ears and lengthen through the front of the torso.
- Breathe and hold, then lower under control.
FORM TIPS
- Push up only as far as stays comfortable in the low back. This should be felt across the abs and chest, not pinching behind the waist.
