Forward fold + straddle wins

Today I managed to straighten my legs from happy baby for first time - probably the narrowest straddle I've ever seen and my lower back was fully off the ground, but the legs were straight so I'm happy with that!

I also took some progress photos of my forward fold and am pretty happy with it! Another win was yesterday - managed to flatten my hands to the ground without warming up for first time - and can also touch my head to my knees when sitting on ground. I haven't really tested my forward fold often since I'm not actively working on it. Next goal: head to knees standing up.

Also I want to do the wide leg forward fold where your upper body is completely flat and between your legs, so I might switch from working on narrow stance forward folds to wide stance - which will hopefully also help a bit with my middle splits which are being incredibly stubborn.
