1 Start in a karate-like stance, with one leg in front of the other and front shoulder facing forward.

2 Squat down a small amount, bending your knees.

3 Quickly move your front leg out in front of you and place it so you are almost in a split.

4 Lean onto your front knee, placing pressure on it and stretching the back leg.

5 Keep your body sideways and make sure your front knee is only at a right angle. Also keep your front foot facing straight and your back foot outwards.

6 Repeat to work out quads and stretch hamstrings.
