Instructions

Setup

  • Start on a mat in a kneeling position.

  • Extend one leg straight out to the side, keeping the foot flat on the floor and your toes pointed forward or slightly upward.

  • Place your elbows or palms on the floor in front of your kneeling knee for stability.

Execution

  • Keep the extended leg straight and firmly planted.

  • Gently shift your hips backward, moving them toward the heel of the kneeling leg.

  • Stop when you feel a deep, controlled stretch along the inner thigh of the extended leg.

  • Hold this position for the desired duration, keeping your back neutral and breathing deeply.

  • Ensure your weight remains balanced and avoid forcing the stretch to the point of pain.
