Flexible Bending

How to get a more flexible upper back?

Hey I want to get a more flexible back!! I can do bridges and stuff, so any variation off of a normal bridge would be good, seals, etc... the thing is, I have a really flexible lower back... it is weird, because your whole back is meant to be the same amount flexible, right? but when I film myself doing a bridge, it is basically all bent in the lower back. Is there any way to get a more flexible upper back?

I'd suggest doing body rolls.

The lower back, by default, tends to be the most flexible part of the back. It's closer to the hips, and we move that area more so than the upper portion.

I too had a "stiff" upper back, but when I incorporated more body rolls into my practice, things started to look up and my back started to loosen up. Bridges are now a piece of cake.

Also, I'd suggest doing chair dips, push-ups, etc. because the strength of your arms plays a role in how your bridges turn out, too.

Good luck!
