How to do it
Stand with a wide stance and shift your weight directly to one side, bending that knee while keeping the opposite leg straight out to the side. Keep both feet flat and facing forward as you lower into a side lunge until you feel a stretch in the inner thigh of the straight leg. Hold, then switch sides.
