The Slim-Down Shimmy.3)Single-Leg Stretch.

Lie on back, bend right knee toward chest and grasp right thigh with both hands. Pull belly button toward spine without pressing spine to floor so you maintain a natural curve. Extend left leg at a 45-degree angle to floor, toes pointed. (If you have a bad back, slightly bend left knee instead of keeping it straight.) Curl head and shoulders off floor. Inhale and pause. Exhale and switch legs. Alternate legs for 10 to 15 reps.
