Follow these simple steps and greatly improve your toe touch.

Steps

• Start by sitting in the butterfly stretch position to stretch out your inner thighs.
• Then stand up an slowly slide your legs apart until you can’t go down any lower. DO NOT TRY TO STRETCH ANY FURTHER THAN YOUR BODY WILL LET YOU! Hold that position for 30 seconds. (To help yourself stay balanced, lean over on your hands.}
• Then slowly sit back on the ground while still maintaining the straddle position. Reach out in front of you as far as you can and hold that position until it doesn’t hurt anymore.(Usually 2-3 minutes.) Slowly bring your legs together.
• Reach your arms out and hold them to your toes for 30 seconds. (You should be in a pike position.)
• Now that you are fully stretched, stand up and start by doing just the arm movements of the toe touch. Then do your toe touch 10 times.

Tips

• Take breaks in between jumps to avoid getting too tried.
• You may want to do the jumps in front of a mirror to see exactly what you are doing wrong.
• Ask someone to critique your toe touch.
• Make sure you point your toes.
• Turn your hips under when you jump. This means that you kind of “sit” or rotate your hip under your body rather than just keeping your hips straight. Don’t rotate so much that you fall! This will make your legs go much higher.
• Do lunges or some other kind of leg strengthening exercise to heighten your jump.
• This takes TIME. Don’t worry if your toe touch doesn’t look good after only a week. Just keep working on your toe touch and it will get MUCH better.

Warnings

• Avoid over stretching your legs because you can really hurt your muscles
• You may be a little sore after the first few times you perform these exercises.
• Be safe! Know your limits. Don’t kill yourself by doing a million jumps at once.
• -Don’t stretch too much. Gradually increasing your flexibility is the best way to go.
