How to perform Half-Kneeling Adductor Stretch

  1. Kneel on one knee and extend the opposite leg out to the side with the foot grounded.
  2. Place your hands on the floor in front of you and keep the extended knee soft.
  3. Move your hips back slightly until you feel a mild inner-thigh stretch, then hold that position.
  4. Move forward before bringing the extended leg in and changing sides; repeated rockbacks are a dynamic variation.
