Tendon Stretch on the Wunda Chair

Who loves a tendon stretch??! Love it or hate it, this exercise is super challenging for the whole body! Working into abdominals, hip flexors, shoulders, leg adductors and hamstrings.

The serratus should be active throughout and shoulders should be flat and wrapped around the ribs. Keep in plantar flexion throughout the exercise to ensure the movement is being initiated from the abdominals. The muscle focus is spinal flexors, shoulder flexors and scapular stabilisation, with the objective of strengthening the abdominals, shoulder flexors and controlling the scapular.

Go on – have a go! Let us know how you get on in the comments below!
