Stand with feet shoulder-width apart. This exercise targets the waist muscles. Bend forward until your hands touch the floor, then bend backward with your hands on your waist. Do 15–20 reps. Each session should last at least 2 minutes. This move can help those with lower back pain, frequent headaches, or high intracranial pressure.
3. "Boxing" turnabout
Lie on your back with knees slightly bent. Speed is key. Lift your upper body off the floor and return to start. Keep your abs engaged throughout. Do 3 sets of 12–15 reps. Each session should last at least 2 minutes. Avoid this move if you have rheumatism, gallbladder issues, or gastritis. Those with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions should be cautious.
