Crossover Kneeling Hip Flexor Stretch

Expert Advice

Keep your hips squared and your upper body straight to ensure a proper stretch of the hip flexors and avoid any unnecessary stress on the lower back.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Begin in a kneeling position with one foot in front, placed across the midline of your body.
  2. Gently push your hips forward until you feel a stretch in the hip flexor of the back leg.
  3. Raise your arms overhead to increase the stretch, if comfortable.
  4. Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, then slowly release.
  5. Switch legs and repeat the stretch on the opposite side.
