Stretching through the front of my body makes me feel so open and alive. I always feel so energized afterwards.</p> <p>One of my favorite backbends is the <a href="/572799" >Camel</a>. It feels amazing on its own, but if you do it with an exercise ball, you can stretch your spine even further. Just place the ball against a sturdy wall, arch back, place your hands on the ball and walk them down. You can even work on getting the crown of your head on the ground, which is a great prep for an advanced backbend called <b>Thunderbolt.</b> Check out this video to see how to get into it.</p> <p><center></p> <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://fitsugar.com/v/582644"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://fitsugar.com/v/582644" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><p></center></p> <p>Music: <i>The Calling</i> by Pressure Drop</p> http://www.fitsugar.com/582641#comment Yoga exercise ball video exercise video How To Get on the Ball thunderbolt advanced camel Thu, 06 Sep 2007 02:30:00 -0700 FitSugar http://www.fitsugar.com/582641
