A short guided lower-body stretching routine led by Autumn Calabrese (Autumn Fitness). The instructor walks viewers through a sequence of standing and seated stretches — forward fold, runner's lunge (both sides), quad grabs, hamstring work, cat-and-cow, butterfly, seated runner's stretch and twists — emphasizing proper form, breathing, and holding each stretch. The video closes with a brief subscribe call-to-action.
Hey, welcome to Autumn Fitness. Thanks for joining me. As you know, I love to beat your legs up, but it's also really important to stretch them back out. So that's what we're gonna do today. Stretch out the lower body. So let's start feet together. We're just gonna roll all the way forward. Drop your chin to your chest. Reach for those toes. And if you can, get the palms flat on the ground. Great. Hold it right here. Feel the stretch up the back of your legs.
We're gonna step the right leg back. Runner's lunge. If you can drop the elbows down. Go for it. Hold that right there.
Nice big stretch in that inner thigh. Now drop your back knee down. We're gonna come up. You're gonna reach back, Grab your toes to stretch out your quad. Keep your abs in tight so you don't lose your balance. Hold that. Press the hips forward just a little bit. Extra stretch. Release it slowly. We're gonna sink back. Hamstring stretch. Toes come off the ground as low as you can, taking the chin to your knee.
Good. Bring it up. We're gonna step the feet together. Roll it all the way up, and deep breath. Let's roll it all the way back. Forward. We'll do the other side. Palms to the ground. Hold it right here.
Other leg steps back. Runner's lunge. If. Drop those elbows. Go for it. Get that deeper stretch. Really loosen it back up. Hold it right here. And breathe. Drop that back knee. Come on up. Reach back. Grab your toes. Stretch out that quad.
Good. Release it. Sink back. Hamstring. Take the head all the way forward. Make sure you get that knee straight. That's where that stretch comes from.
Now let's come onto the hands and knees. We're gonna do cat and co. Just loosen up the lower back. So arch and look up.
And round. Drop the chin all the way down.
Arch and look up. Big stretch and round. We're gonna do one more right here.
Arch, look up.
And round, look down.
Good. Bring it back to neutral. Let's just sit. We'll go into a butterfly stretch. So soles of the feet together. Lean.
Again, stretching out those inner thighs. If you want. Use the elbows. Press the knees a little bit lower.
Roll it up. Take one leg out. We're gonna go into that runner's stretch right here. Reach all the way forward. Try to kiss the top of that knee.
Always important to do this with your knee straight.
Switch sides. If you bend the knee, you lose the stretch right here. All the way forward as far as you.
Nice deep stretch. Breathe through it. Bring it back up from here. Take that leg, put it over the top. We're just gonna twist.
And let's switch sides. Nice big rotation right here.
Good. Bring the legs straight out in front of you. One more time. Reach all the way forward. If you can reach your toes, try to pull your heels off the ground. Get a little bit deeper. Stretch and you should feel it in your calf muscle as.
Hold it right here.
And release. Nicely done, you guys. Thanks for joining me. Be sure to subscribe, check back often for new things, and I'll see you soon. Thanks for joining me.
