The Bretzel stretch hits so many corners in one move. The stretch targets your quads, hips, shoulders, and back.

We love this routine as a cool-down or warm-up.
Many people will struggle with turning one way and this will not only highlight that, but it will give you a sure-fire way to address it.
As you try both sides of your body, if you notice a difference in flexibility between the left and right, it’s really important to work hard on the tighter side
You will get more out of the bretzel stretch if you focus on slow, controlled, and RELAXED breathing.
Give our Bretzel Stretch Work Break a try and let us know what you think!
We know it’s hard sometimes to fit a longer class in your schedule, so we created the work break playlist to give you the option to add quick 5-15 minute stretch routines in the middle of your day or as a warm-up or cool down.
