How to do it
- Start off by lying on the floor.
- Extend one leg straight and pull the other knee to your chest. Hold under the knee joint to protect the kneecap.
- Gently tug that knee toward your nose.
- Switch sides. This stretches the buttocks and lower back of the bent leg and the hip flexor of the straight leg.
