Crossed-Leg Forward Fold Stretch
- 1 - Stand tall with your feet together and cross your right foot over your left, placing them as close together as possible.
- 2 - Keep a slight bend in both knees to avoid hyperextension and engage your core gently for stability.
- 3 - Slowly hinge forward at the hips, allowing your torso to fold down toward your legs while keeping your spine long.
- 4 - Let your arms hang naturally toward the ground or reach for your shins, ankles, or the floor depending on your flexibility.
- 5 - Hold the stretch for 20–40 seconds, breathing deeply and relaxing further into the fold with each exhale.
- 6 - Slowly rise back up to standing, then switch the cross so your left foot is over your right and repeat.
