5. Towel Stretch

Sitting on the floor with your legs straight out in front of you, hold a rolled-up towel at both ends and place it under the ball of your right foot. Keeping your knee straight but not locked, gently pull the towel toward you. Keep your back as straight as you can and try not to let your leg rise off the floor. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds and repeat on each leg two to four times. Make sure the towel is under the ball of your foot, not placing pressure on the arch.
