Standing Stretch

Fun fact: I do these at the edge of my bed a lot before I go to sleep even if I'm not practicing splits.

  • Prop your left heel up on a surface that is a little lower than your hip, such as a chair or bench. Flex your foot.
  • To increase the stretch, bend forward toward your flexed foot by creasing at your hips. Hold for 30 seconds and switch legs.
