Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Lying Side Stretch.
The Lying Side Stretch is a gentle floor-based stretch that targets the obliques, lateral lower back, and the muscles running along the side of the torso. It is ideal for cool-downs, morning routines, or any session focused on improving lateral flexibility.
The Lying Side Stretch is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
