Sumo squat to hamstring stretch

Stand with your feet wide, toes can turn out a bit. Bending your knees slightly as you bend down to grab your feet. Lower yourself down into a deep squat, keeping your core braced, trying to keep a nice long line from your sacrum all the way to the crown of your head. Pause briefly here in position one, the sumo squat. Then move to position two, the hamstring stretch. Brace your core, drop your head as you lift your butt. Raise as high as you can slowly and you will feel a deep stretch on your hamstrings. Pause briefly here then repeat until done. When done the final hamstring stretch, keeping the knees slightly bent, slowly curl up to stand.
