Have you ever found that whenever a cat wakes up, it always straightens its front legs and then stretches forward greatly? "Cat style" is to imitate the movements of cats. Whether you love cats or not, you might as well do this posture more often. It is a good and safe warm-up exercise, and it is also effective in eliminating back stiffness and fatigue.

1, kneeling on the ground, knees open with hip width, legs and instep close to the ground, feet up. Lean forward and keep your back straight. Pay attention to the right angle between thighs and calves and the trunk, and the trunk is parallel to the ground. Press the palm of your hand on the ground and put it in the middle position under your shoulders. Your arms should be vertical, at right angles to the ground and shoulder width. Fingertips point forward.
2, inhale, while slowly raising the hips, the waist is slightly bent downward to form an arc. Keep your eyes on the front, lower your shoulders, keep your cervical spine in a straight line, and don't lift your head too much.
3. Exhale, arch your back up slowly at the same time, drive your face down, and look at the thigh position until you feel the feeling of stretching your back. Repeat the above actions 6 to 10 times with breathing.
