How to do the hand plank leg lift stretch

Instructions for hand plank leg lift:

Place your hands under your shoulders, slightly wider than shoulder width (like you’re about to do a push-up).
Ground your toes into the floor and engage your abs, shouldes, back, and glutes to stabilize the body.
Be careful not to lock or hyperextend your knees.
While keeping your core engaged, slowly raise one leg off the floor until it’s at about hip height.
