Standing Straddle

Stand in a wide-legged straddle stance with feet parallel; hinge at the hips to fold the upper body forward toward the floor, shifting weight between center, right leg, and left leg.

Key points

  • Keep the weight centered through the midfoot rather than leaning fully back into heels
  • Hinge from the hips with a long spine before releasing the head and neck down
  • Shift gently side-to-side to bias adductors and medial hamstrings

Common mistakes

Bending the knees inward or collapsing through the arch of the feet.
