I teach this set every week. It means to press your heels into the floor so your legs are stretching slightly while you raise the arms. Then, as you extend the right arm upwars, gently stretch the right leg, as if you can extend it further. Then the left leg.
Just listen to your body and stretch both sides equally, slowly and gradually. It should feel comfortable, and over time, the arms and legs should be able to stretch to their maximum without effort.
Practice three times a week (correctly - look in a miror)and you'll see the muscles and tendons respond quickly.
