Instructions

Setup

  • Sit on the floor and position both legs at 90-degree angles.

  • Your front leg should be bent at 90 degrees with the shin parallel to your body, and your back leg should be bent at 90 degrees behind you.

Execution

  • Keep your torso upright.

  • Place your hands on the ground or engage your core to maintain a neutral spine.

  • To add the twist, gently rotate your torso towards the side of your front leg.

  • Hold the position, focusing on breathing into the tightness in your hips and lower back.

  • Maintain a tall posture throughout the movement to maximize the stretch.
