How to Do a Toe Touch

Toe touches are a great all-around exercise. They are good stretching exercises to do before running or other activities. They also are great, simple exercises by themselves. When doing toe touches, take it slow and don’t over exert yourself.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Take a deep breath.

2. Exhale slowly.

3. Stand with your feet together.

4. Slowly bend at the waist.

5. Stretch your arms to the floor.

6. Bend your knees slightly.

7. Stretch your fingertips as far as you can to touch your toes. Touch your toes if possible. If you can’t quite make it, don’t worry about it and just go as far down as you can.

8. Straighten your legs while you are touching your toes, if possible. You should feel a little strain in the backs of your legs. Stop if you experience any pain.

9. Raise up slowly into your original standing position.

10. Repeat as many times as you like.
