  • Lie on your back on the Reformer with your head supported and spine in a neutral position.
  • Place your heels together on the foot bar with toes apart, forming a small V-shape (toes roughly 45 degrees out).
  • Keep the heels lightly pressed together throughout the movement to encourage inner thigh engagement.
  • Ensure your knees track in line with your toes and do not collapse inward.
  • Inhale to prepare. As you exhale, press through your heels to extend the legs, keeping the pelvis stable and spine neutral.
  • Do not lock out your knees at the top—finish with the legs long and active.
  • Inhale to bend the knees and return the carriage with control, maintaining the V position throughout.
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
