So, I'm going to give you the ones where she's going to reach around and clasp her hands in the back. Alright, so this is we're just going to keep it simple here. Squeeze, chest comes open. Chest gets contracted in bad posture. So, we want to work those right there. Keep chin tucked slightly and squeeze the glutes, all right. Push down, alright. Alright, now relax stay in this position.
