How to do it

  1. 01

    Stand so your feet are shoulder width apart and your hands are on your hips.

  2. 02

    Twist at your waist until you feel a stretch. Hold for 10 to 15 seconds, then twist to the other side.

In the app

Middle Back Stretch appears when you own the kit it needs and the day's window has room for it. Its minutes come from Rule 2 (Sessions are built to fit, never guaranteed, graded product): the window sets how long it runs, never the other way round.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have the kit it needs

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
