Toe Touch
How to do it
- Stand with feet hip width apart and a slight bend in the knees.
- Brace the core and hinge forward at the hips, reaching both hands toward the toes.
- Keep the spine long as the torso lowers, feeling the tension build through the back of the thighs.
- Lower only as far as control allows before the lower back begins to round.
- Exhale while hinging down and inhale while driving the hips forward to return upright.
- Rise back to standing under control, keeping the motion smooth rather than bouncing at the bottom.
