Which exercise is performed for 3 reps and is the downward stretch?

• A. Down Stretch
• B. Twist
• C. Long Stretch
• D. Reach

Answer: (A)

This item tests your knowledge of the Down Stretch in the Reformers’ Long Stretch sequence and its three-repetition cadence. The Down Stretch is the downward stretch within that series, performed with a long, controlled spine as the carriage moves out and back from a prone position. The focus is on lengthening the spine downward while keeping the hips stable, which is why it’s described as the downward stretch and typically done for three repetitions to build control and even breathing. The other options describe different movements or directions (twisting, different stretch patterns) and don’t reflect the specific downward orientation and repetition pattern of this move.
