Outside Spread Eagles are very easy to achieve for some skaters, but may pose a significant challenge to others. However, with sustained and diligent effort in off-ice and on-ice exercises, any skater can develop a smooth and seamless Outside Spread Eagle. Let’s get some tips from @lex_fitzi from @team_unity_senior 🇦🇺

Off-ice
After completing a quick jog or skip to get the blood flowing,
Complete Dynamic hip opening exercises once to ensure muscles and tendons are appropriately warmed up
Hold Static hip opening stretches for 45-60 seconds to increase range of motion in the key areas
Hold Static glute stretches for 45-60 seconds to warm up glutes for on ice exercises
Enter Off-ice spread eagle position 5 times to practice the dynamic turnout movement required on ice

On-ice
Hold a Stationary Spread eagle position for 10 seconds at a time to introduce the position safely on the ice 
Use a Squat entry into spread eagle position 5 times to ensure the turnout is occurring at the hips and ankles and not the knees
Now with movement on a circle, use a Forward swing entry of the free foot 5 times to help train the fast hip-opening movement required with the aid of momentum
Staying on the circle, use a Inside 3-turn entry into the spread Eagle position 5 times, as the rotational momentum will help get you onto the outside edge
On the circle, step straight into the spread Eagle from a Backward crossover entry 5 times, making sure that the leading shoulder is being pulled back into the circle
Complete all circle exercises in the other direction
Skate a large semicircular pattern of spread eagles in both directions with a crossover in between
Skate on a large circle and use a Waltz Jump entry into an outside spread Eagle 
When you feel confident, why not grab a teammate and try out some Partner Spread Eagles!
