Standing Toe Touches

A 200-characters-or-less explanation of the exercise.

Instructions

• Stand up straight with feet shoulder-width apart.
• Slowly bend forward at the hips and extend your arms towards your toes.
• Keep your knees as straight as possible.
• Try to touch your toes or reach as far as you comfortably can.
• Hold the stretch position briefly, then return to the starting position.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Bouncing while trying to reach the toes instead of moving steadily.
• Bending the knees too much which reduces the stretch intensity.
• Rounding the back excessively.
