That is make way for a waistline by exercising to pull the ribs away from the hips. And side-stretching is the thing for that. You lie flat on the flocr, with arms stretched above you, tight to the floor. Not only that; kee) your legs, hips, back and shoulders tight on the floor as well. That's| important. Keeping your arms and legs| tight on the floor, move them toward each other as far as you can so that the body assumes a semi-circular position. }_IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIINIIHIIIIIIIIIIJ | FINNISH 5 Educational Club " SOCIAL ° Tuesday Evening L O.
