How to Side Split

Starting Position

Sit on the floor and spread your legs as far apart as possible. Keep your back straight and lightly place your hands on the floor to maintain balance.

Proper Form

1. Please slowly bend your upper body forward while keeping your back straight.

2. Extend both hands forward and lower your upper body as much as possible.

3. Hold for 10-20 seconds and feel the stretch in the inner thighs.

4. Slowly raise your upper body again, and this time lean to the right and grab your toes.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when bending your upper body, and breathe naturally while maintaining your posture.

Precautions

Do not round your waist; keep it straight. Do not forcefully spread your legs too much; gradually increase within your own range. Do not push hard with a rebound.
