Description

You are standing with legs straight, arms at your sides, and holding a weight in the hand opposite to the leg you are working on. While keeping the supporting leg as straight as possible, lean forward and reach for the ground with the hand holding the weight. At the same time, the opposite leg rises to counterbalance. Make sure to keep your back as straight as possible and maintain good balance throughout the movement. You then slowly return to the starting position.
