How to do it
- Start on hands and knees.

- Extend the other leg straight behind you with the top of that foot on the floor.
- Square your hips toward the front as much as possible.
- Walk your hands forward and lower your torso over the front leg for a deeper stretch.
- Hold for the desired time, then switch sides.
