Sit, then flex and stretch your ankles to improve mobility and circulation in the area. This is a simple exercise that can be done several times a day.

While sitting or standing, gently rotate your torso from side to side to improve spinal rotation. Tighten your abdominal muscles while exercising to help narrow your waistline.
