Front Split Stretch

Hi Guys!

Just want to ask if it's okay to allow the extended leg to turn out during the narrow hurdler and wide hurdler stretches in the Front Split Stretch program? I can only fold forward comfortably with my head on my knee  when my stretched leg is turned out. Also just want to ask what the purpose of the narrow hurdler is in terms of achieving a full front split.

Thanks!

Yes, turning the front leg out a bit is actually preferable.

The narrow hurdler begins adding a bit of quad mobility.
