This gentle tone and stretch routine was a perfect way to start the day. After recently returning from vacation, I wanted to do something slower but still effective. I brought weights and bands with one idea in mind, but this turned out to be a much better one.
As we move through this flow, you’ll notice that we’re moving a bit slower and taking breaks to stretch throughout. Use this time to tune in to what how your body is feeling. Notice if you have a rhythm to your breathing. Things like this help with control and allow us to get the most out of our workout.
No equipment is needed – just a mat and some space. This routine is also on the shorter side. Since it lasts a little over 13 minutes, it’s perfect to squeeze in first thing in the morning or at the end of a workout. Feel free to modify or adjust the moves as needed, based on your fitness level.
