Pilates Exercise : Double Leg Stretch

Scoot yourself down, bring your knees into your chest, relax your neck. If you feel a problem in your neck, just want you to raise up, stay nice and long, with your chin towards the chest. You don't think your head in and then tuck it down. You lengthen the neck, bring your chin to your chest. Get ready for the Double Leg Stretch. You're going to reach around with the arms and at the same time, you're going to extend the legs out. So it looks like this. Reach away from the body, circle the arms, slightly pull. Reach away, circle your arms. Modified version: up, release. Up, release, Up, release. More advanced version: away from your body, hug your knees, away. Hug your knees. There's no belly breathing here, the abs stay down. Reach away, hug your knees. Reach away, hug your knees. Relax your neck. You can just rock it side to side, feels pretty good.
