Technique
- Sit with your back against the pad and place the legs against the pads, set to a comfortable wide start position.
- Squeeze the legs together slowly until the pads meet.
- Pause, then open the legs under control.
Cues
- Set the starting width so the stretch is comfortable, not extreme.
- Keep the back against the pad.
Common mistakes
- Slamming the pads together or letting them fly open.
- Starting from an extreme width that strains the groin.
- Leaning forward to use momentum.
