- Allow your bottom arm to hang in a comfortable position for support over the ball and extend your left arm overhead, reaching it along the line of your body.
- Allow your body to relax over the ball, feeling a stretch along the side of your torso and through your latissimus dorsi (lats).
- Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply and steadily. Slowly roll back to the starting position and repeat on the other side.
