A quick warm up for the back won’t take over 10 minutes and it can prevent small injuries.

1. Stretch one arm slowly and maintain. Repeat 10 times with each arm.

2. Stretch the back holding on to something solid and turn slowly until you reach a certain point and go back to the initial position. Repeat 10 times for each side.

3. Like the previous exercise, but stretching other parts of the back.

4. Make circles with your arms. Repeat 15 times to the front and 15 times to the back.

5. Bend over slowly until you touch the floor and maintain the position for 5 seconds. It does not matter if you flex your legs a little, what you shouldn’t do is bounce or lower too fast.

How you shouldn’t do it.

6. Rotate the higher back trying to get to a maximum point slowly, repeating 10 times for each side.

How you shouldn’t do it.

it is very important that you take into consideration that all of the exercises mentioned before should be done slowly, trying to stretch the muscles bit by bit. Never try to bounce or stretch the muscles more than usual. Concentrate on your breathing and in the posture.
