Description

Stand facing a stick placed on two chairs (or a hurdle), about knee height. Hold a stick behind your neck, keeping it parallel to the ground throughout the movement. Step one leg over the obstacle, bending the hip as much as possible, then lightly touch the ground with the heel on the other side. Return to the starting position and repeat the exercise, alternating legs. To simplify or complicate the exercise, you can change the height of the obstacle.
