To do this test stretch, follow these steps:
1. Sit up tall in a chair with your back straight, your abdominals lifted, and your shoulders down.
2. Place your left arm on the outside of your right thigh and your right hand on the back seat of your chair.
This position helps you turn your upper body at the waist in the next step.
3. Inhale and as you exhale twist at your waist as if you were trying to look behind you.
Remember to keep both shoulders down and to look out in front of you, not at the floor.
4. Make a note on what place on the clock your chest faces.
• 1:00 is tight.
• 2:00 is a healthy range of motion.
• 3:00 is very flexible.
5. Repeat this stretch by rotating to your left side and record the results.
• 11:00 is tight.
• 10:00 is a healthy range of motion.
• 9:00 is very flexible.
