W STRETCH

10 secs, 6 reps, 3 sets

Adopt a sitting position with your back straight, legs out wide and knees bent.

Drop both knees to one side under control until you are in 90/90 position (see diagram, above).

Return to the start position and repeat on the opposite side.

SARAH SAYS: “This is a lovely opener for

the hips to encourage flexibility – key for absorbing your horse’s natural strides.” *You should not do this exercise if you have a hip replacement or excessive hip movement/hypermobility.
