¿Esto suena natural? The examination procedure was instructed to Hiro as follows: (1) Touch the tip of the examiner’s index finger with the tip of his index finger; (2) Touch his nose with his index finger; and (3) Repeat that a few times. In this test, the examiner’s index finger was positioned so that Hiro’s arm was fully stretched when he outreached at the target.

I described the finger-nose test, which is shown in the following video.

No problem Misokatsu.
I think you may have been thinking of "outstretched".
In this test, the examiner’s index finger was positioned so that Hiro’s arm was fully outstretched when he reached the target.
That would also be OK.
The verb "outreach" would normally mean "overreach", reach too far.
