Lunge towards your partner. With your arms stretched out, press your palms against your partner's and press the heel of your back leg onto the floor. Bend and stretch your arms slightly to bounce your upper body towards your hands/partner and support the dynamic stretching. Then switch legs.

No material required

Stand hip-width apart opposite your partner, tilt your upper body forwards and press your palms against your partner's with your arms stretched out overhead (holding them up). Press your heels onto the floor.

No material required

Light lunge, lean your body forwards and support yourself with your hands on the wall. Bend the front leg, stretch the back leg and place both feet flat on the floor (press the heel of the back foot against the floor). The stretch can be intensified by increasing the amount of support. Push your hips and front knee forwards in a rocking motion while continuing to press your back heel firmly against the floor to support the dynamic stretch. Then switch legs.

Variant:
The exercise can also be performed without a wall by placing both feet flat on the floor in a stepping position and tilting the upper body slightly forwards.

1 wall/wall or similar

Light lunge, with the front leg stretched and the back leg slightly bent. Bend the foot of the front leg (remote position) and pull the tip of the foot towards your body while rocking with the aid. Then switch legs.

Per participant:
1 stick ►unihockey, intercrosse/lacrosse, Nordic walking
1 racket ►badminton/speedminton, smolball
1 throwing disc (frisbee) ►frisbee ultimate
1 elastic rubber band//string/skipping rope/playing rope
1 gymnastics stick with elastic band

In a stepping position, both feet lie flat on the floor (front leg bent, back leg stretched - press the heel of the back leg against the floor), lean the upper body forwards in a rocking motion. The stretch can be intensified with a larger support. Then switch legs.

No material required

From a shortened stride position, bend the back leg forwards in the knee joint so far that the knee rises above the tip of the foot (the tilt creates a stretch in the lower calf of the back bent leg - heels always remain on the floor). Then switch sides.

No material required

With the leg slightly bent, place the toe of the foot on a small elevation (e.g. step) and press the heel down, rocking. The supporting leg is either also placed on the elevation (better variation) or underneath the elevation on the surface. Then switch sides.

No material required

Stand hip-width apart opposite your partner, tilt your upper body forwards and press your palms against the aid with your arms stretched out overhead (holding them up) (clamp the object together). Press your heels onto the floor.
