58s
Face a wall, straight arms up high as possible, one toe up the baseboard, other heel back and down. Square off the hips and look toward the wall to let the chest stretch forward. Keep the front leg mostly straight and breath into all the tension. You will feel where you are the tighest.

Hip Lower Leg
Facing a wall, hands on for support. One leg back, other leg fairly close to the wall. All 10 toes straight ahead. Engage the glute of the leg in back, then ease forward and back for a couple seconds each way keeping the back foot down. Reapeat other side. Ok to hold after a workout.

Feels Good After Sitting
On the back, grab the chin with the opposite side hand and pull with other hand too so stretching across the body. Bent knee going to the opposite side shoulder. Stretch other nearby muscles that get tight when sitting in different angles like ankle on thigh and hug.

Legs and Trunk
Sitting tall, legs out wide, bent if needed. Reach up with one arm to lift out of the rib cage and breath. Add on by reaching toward the opposite leg keeping the chest open, never forcing. With each exhale, ease into a bit more.
