Description

Sit on a chair and cross the ankle of the side to be stretched over the opposite knee. Then, lean forward towards your ankle, ensuring to maintain a straight and controlled posture. Hold this position for the recommended duration, making sure to feel a comfortable but effective stretch in the targeted area. Once the duration is over, slowly return to your initial position and repeat the exercise as directed.
