toe touch

Bend and reach

A toe touch is a flexibility exercise where you bend at the waist and reach your fingertips toward your toes, testing hamstring and lower back suppleness: I can barely do a toe touch anymore.

In cheerleading and gymnastics, a toe touch is a jump where the legs extend sideways while the hands reach toward the feet at the peak of the jump.
