Exercise Demonstrations

Starting Position
Begin standing with both feet on the ground, shoulder width apart.

Action
Slowly lower your upper body by bending at the waist and reaching your arms down towards your feet. Attempt or touch your toes and hold the position for 12 to 15 seconds. Slowly roll up the spine to return to the starting position. Repeat two times.

Special Instructions
Do not bounce when performing this or any other stretching exercise. Stretching should not hurt, if so you are going too far in your movement.
