The August move of the month: Scorpion Exercise!

1) Lie down on your stomach with the arms outstretched to the sides at a 90-degree angle. Relax your neck and both legs.

2) The goal is to lift one leg and bring it across the body to the opposite side, toward your arm.

3) When lifting the leg, bend it first at your knee. Then lift the knee off the ground by contracting your glute.

4) Slowly bring the bent leg over to the opposite side of your body (right leg toward the left arm) and make sure that you never relax that (right) butt cheek. 
5) Keep your chest and arms on the ground. Do not lift them in an attempt to reach further with your leg.

6) Slowly return to the starting position and repeat with the other leg.

The Scorpion is good to relieve a tight back and is a core strengthener.

The Scorpion exercise is great to warm up before your activity and is great to finish your workout.
