Kneeling Hip Flexor

Technique

How to perform Kneeling Hip Flexor

1. Start half-kneeling with one knee on the floor and the opposite foot planted in front of you.
2. Keep the rear knee supported, with the top of that foot resting behind you.
3. Stand your torso tall and gently draw your pelvis under rather than arching your lower back.
4. Shift your pelvis forward a small amount while maintaining that position, until you feel a mild stretch at the front of the rear hip.
5. Hold without forcing a deeper lunge, then move back to release the stretch.
6. Switch the kneeling leg and repeat on the other side.
