Front Bend Stretching Exercise 4

Get 3 chairs. Sit on one of the chairs and put the feet up on the other two other chairs. Have your legs comfortably wide apart (because you're going to get well between them) and lean forward as far as you can with the help of your natural weight and to 1-2-3-4-5 tighten the bend. When or if you can grasp the rear legs of the chair this will allow you to pull in strongly. Relax for a 5 count. The chairs should be quite stable so you should not need any assistance. Use the count of 1-2-3-4-5 to get a bit further between the legs each time and then rest for the 5 count and then repeat. Do a reasonable number of repeats if you can as the hip joint can take a lot! Repeat this exercise at least 15 times.
