Assisted Front Split Stretch

How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

1. 01Kneel between sturdy yoga blocks with padding beneath the rear knee and a slider under the front heel only if needed.
2. 02Extend one leg forward and slide the other leg backward gradually while keeping the pelvis facing forward.
3. 03Lower only until a controlled stretch is felt in the front hamstring and rear hip flexor, without forcing either knee.
4. 04Keep both hands supported, the torso controlled, and the hips square; do not bounce or relax suddenly into end range.
5. 05Hold about 30 seconds, press into the blocks to exit slowly, then reverse the leg positions and hold the other side about 30 seconds.
