Sprinter's Stretch

sprinter's stretch

For sprinter's stretch, we're going to have everything in a line. So we're going to have that front heel down, the knee is going to be right behind the front foot there, and then the back foot is in a line. Our hands are going to go on the inside of the up knee. And then we're going to straighten that back leg out, trying to drop the heel down. We're going to gradually get back. Good. And then come back forward, dropping that down, pushing into the ground. Straighten that back knee. Good. And gradually getting that back heel down farther and farther with each repetition.
