1. Begin by standing straight with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart.
2. Your toes should be pointing forward or slightly turned out, in a comfortable position.
3. Shift your weight to one side, bending that knee while keeping the other leg straight.
4. Lean your upper body slightly towards the bent knee side for a deeper stretch, ensuring your bent knee does not go past your toes.
5. Place your hands on your bent knee or the floor for balance as needed.
6. Hold the stretch position for 15-30 seconds, feeling a stretch along the inner thigh of the straight leg.
7. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat on the other side.
8. Perform this stretch 2-3 times per side.
Remember to keep your back straight and avoid bouncing during the stretch. Breathe deeply and consistently throughout the stretch for the best results. Always perform stretching exercises within a comfortable range of motion to prevent injury.
