10-30 seconds • Rest between sets, or transition directly to next exercise.
Stand tall with feet hip-width apart in an open space that allows for walking. Ensure you have enough room to take several steps forward while maintaining balance.
Breathe continuously and deeply; do not hold your breath while maintaining the stretch or during the transition.
Pull the heel close to the glutes until a moderate stretch is felt in the quadriceps, without excessive arching of the lower back.
Not applicable; this is a self-regulated dynamic stretch.
