Bend forward and reach out and touch the toes of your outstretched leg.
Hold the stretch and relax.

2.) Individual workout
Squats: How to squat properly
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Raise your arms high or hold them in front of you and squat down.
Go down as if sitting on a chair. Your knees should not bend forward, they should remain right above the ankles.
Calf Raise:
Stand up straight, and put some weight in your arms. If you're a beginner and are not as comfortable with weights, then hold your arms above your head.
Keep your legs shoulder apart, and rise on the balls of your feet.
Keep your body tight.
Quadriceps Lift:
While sitting on a bench, tighten your abdomen and extend one leg in front of you. Toes pointing forward.
Repeat with other leg.
