Head-To-Floor Deep-Squat

1. Starting Position:
- Begin by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart. Your toes can point slightly outward to help with balance.

2. Squatting Down:
- Slowly bend your knees and lower your body into a squat position. Keep your back straight and chest lifted as you go down.
- Aim to lower your hips below your knees while keeping your heels flat on the ground. If your heels lift, try to widen your stance slightly.

3. Positioning Your Arms:
- Once in the squat position, bring your hands together in front of your chest, or you can place your elbows inside your knees for support.
- If it feels comfortable, you can press your knees outward gently using your elbows to deepen the stretch.

4. Stretching Forward:
- From the squat, start to lower your upper body towards the ground, lengthening your spine.
- Try to bring your head down toward the floor without losing the squat position. This may take some practice if you have tight hamstrings or back muscles.

5. Holding the Position:
- Hold this position for 15 to 30 seconds, breathing deeply and relaxing into the stretch. Focus on feeling the stretch in your hips, lower back, and legs.

6. Exiting the Stretch:
- To come out of the stretch, engage your core and gently rise back up to a standing position.
- Straighten your legs and return to your initial standing stance.

7. Repetition:
- Repeat the stretch 2 to 4 times, allowing your body to relax and deepen into the position with each repetition.

Tip: If you struggle to maintain balance or depth in the squat, you can hold onto a sturdy surface like a wall or a chair for support.
