To do this test stretch, follow these steps:
1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your back straight, abdominals lifted, and your shoulders down.
2. Place your right hand overhead and your left arm to your side.
3. Inhale and as you exhale bend to the left side, reaching the fingers on your left hand down the side of your leg
Try to keep your shoulders and hips facing the front, avoiding even the slightest rotation in the spine.
4. Make a note on the Flexibility Self-Evaluation Worksheet at what place on the clock face the top of your head points to.
• 1:00 is tight
• 2:00 is healthy range of motion
• 3:00 is very flexible
5. Repeat this stretch on your other side (to stretch the left side).
• 11:00 is tight
• 10:00 is healthy range of motion
• 9:00 is very flexible
