Description

Place one foot on a chair in front of you with the knee bent, and the toes pointing forward. Ensure that the leg supporting you on the floor is positioned about 2 to 3 feet from the chair. Keep the torso upright and push the hips forward while keeping the heel of the back leg on the ground. Once the stretching sensation is felt, hold this position for the indicated time, then release.
