Description

Place one foot on a chair in front of you, with the knee bent and the toes pointed forward. Both hands rest on the front knee to maintain balance. Make sure the leg supporting the weight on the ground is positioned 2 to 3 feet from the chair. Keep your trunk straight and push your hips forward while keeping the heel of the back leg on the ground until you feel a comfortable stretch. Then, lift the heel of the back leg and hold the position for the indicated time. Release and repeat the movement.
