Nicole Stuart Instagram – Post-travel recovery mode activated! I also did this stretch all the time on the Cadillac while I was pregnant it was one of my favorite stretches FULL VIDEO ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ✈️✨ After a long flight, I’ve discovered the perfect Pilates-inspired routine to release tension and restore my body. Check out this exercise that works wonders for me! In this video, you’ll see me standing, using the railing on the patio as support to lengthen my spine. While holding on to the railing, I smoothly transition into a squat. This move helps to engage my lower body, release any tightness in lower back and boost circulation. I roll up through my spine one vertebrae at a time and then go into an upper back bend opening up my chest. I repeat this exercise three times. Then I drop down into a low squat which goes even deeper into the hips, lower back, spine, ankles, calf’s even getting my neck and shoulders to stretch, lengthen and open up. It’s a fantastic way to open up my chest and stretch out my entire body. I love how versatile Pilates can be, adapting to different environments! It’s an excellent way to reconnect with my body after a long journey. Give it a go and let me know how it feels! Remember to modify based on your own comfort level and always listen to your body. Happy travels and self-care, everyone! 🌍💆‍♀️ @totalbodybeautiful #PilatesInspired #TravelRecovery #StretchAndRelease #SelfCareJourney Maui, Hawaii
