Pancake Stretch
- 1 - Sit on the floor with your legs extended wide apart in a straddle position, keeping your knees and toes pointing upward.
- 2 - Sit tall on your sit bones and lengthen your spine before folding forward.
- 3 - Place your hands on the floor in front of you and brace your core lightly.
- 4 - Hinge forward from your hips, walking your hands forward while keeping your back as long as possible.
- 5 - Stop when you feel a comfortable stretch through your inner thighs, hamstrings, and lower back; avoid forcing the range of motion.
- 6 - Hold the position while breathing slowly and evenly, relaxing deeper with each exhale.
- 7 - To come out, walk your hands back toward your body and slowly return to an upright seated position.
