Who can do this?
Had a fitness test today and everything went well except for the flexibility test. Who can sit with their feet up against a wall, reach forward keeping your knees straight and touch the wall with your palms. This stretch was extremely difficult in the beginning because of my very tight hamstrings. On my 3rd try, I could only get to my shoelaces...I know I suck! Who can actually do this?

I thought just sitting on floor with my legs out was the test, I didnt know I had to bend over to touch wall. I dont stretch enough and know it. I can not touch the wall or shoes, hell I am trying to reach my knees.

I can do it. When I stretched everyday for football I was more flexible than I am now..but I can still do it easily. When your on your back and you have one person sit on your say right leg and stretch your left leg..I used to be able to touch my left toes to the ground haha it looked really gay..coach called me a ballerina haha

I've very flexible in that department, although being built like a ballerina might have something to do with it. I can stretch so far forward in the sitting position I can go over the top of my feet and touch the balls of my feet with my fingertips. For my ESSF class I had to do a flexibilty lab and on the sit 'n' reach I scored like 2 or 3 inches off the chart
