Straddle stretch

Instructions:

1. Begin by sitting and opening the legs as wide as possible, forming a split.

2. Keeping the back straight throughout, walk the hands forward through the middle of the legs, bending at the waist.

3. When you feel a deep stretch, pause and hold that position for 15 seconds.

4. Walk the hands back up to return to the starting position.

5. Next, reach over towards the left foot, extending the arms and leaning the body.

6. Hold for 15 seconds then sit up straight.

7. Repeat, reaching for the right foot. Hold for 15 seconds then return to the starting position.
