Couple good quick ones for traveling:
1. Stand straight, with your heels and behind against a wall.
2. Cross your right foot over your left, both feet flat on the floor.
3. Slowly bend at the waist, reaching for your toes. Your right leg will hold the left straight, and you should feel the pull in the back of your left leg (only go far enough to feel discomfort in the muscle, not pain). Stretch and hold for 30 seconds.
4. Switch legs and repeat for the right side.
1. Lie flat on the floor, on your stomach, with your hands flat at shoulder level.
2. Lift your head and tosro, as if doing a push-up, but keep your hips/belt line flat agains the floor.
3. Push up, feeling the strech in yout lower back. Stretch and hold for 30 seconds. Do not arch your back, and make sure to keep your hips flat against the floor.
I have others, but they are difficult to describe in chat.
Hope these help a bit.
