Balance-assisted single-leg hinge

  • Duration: 7 min
  • Level: Beginner
  • Goal track: Weight loss

Stand facing a sturdy chair and rest both hands lightly on its back for balance. Shift your weight onto one leg and, keeping that knee softly bent, hinge forward from your hips while letting your other leg extend straight out behind you, aiming for a straight line from your lifted heel to your head. Pause when you feel a gentle stretch in the standing leg's hamstring, then return to standing with control. Do 2 sets of 6 repetitions on each side.
