Side Split
Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Side Split
- Slowly spread your feet apart until they are wider than your shoulders, keeping them parallel and your toes pointing forward.
- Gradually slide your feet further apart, lowering your body towards the ground as you do so, keeping your back straight and your weight evenly distributed between your feet.
- Continue to slide your feet outwards until you feel a stretch in your inner thighs, aiming to eventually have your body low enough that your legs form a straight line from ankle to ankle.
- Hold this position for a few seconds, then slowly slide your feet back together and stand up straight to complete the exercise. Remember to breathe steadily throughout and only stretch as far as is comfortable.
