Sample AIS Exercises:
- Hamstring Stretch: Lie on your back with one leg extended. Hold the back of your thigh with both hands and gently lift your leg toward the ceiling. Engage your quadriceps to actively resist the movement. Repeat on the other leg.
- Quadriceps Stretch: Stand tall and hold onto a support for balance. Bend one knee and hold onto your ankle, pulling your foot toward your glutes. Engage your hamstrings to actively resist the movement. Repeat on the other leg.
- Shoulder Stretch: Stand with good posture and reach one arm across your chest. Use your other arm to hold the stretched arm just above the elbow. Gently pull the arm across your chest while actively resisting the movement with your shoulder muscles. Repeat on the other arm.
- Spinal Twist Stretch: Sit tall on the floor with your legs extended. Bend one knee and place your foot on the outside of the opposite thigh. Twist your torso toward the bent knee while actively resisting the movement with your core muscles. Repeat on the other side.
