Hip Extension Stretch

Expert Advice

Move into the stretch slowly and avoid bouncing to prevent muscle strain. Hold the stretch for at least 15-30 seconds for maximum benefit.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Lie on your back on a comfortable surface.
  2. Pull one knee towards your chest while keeping the other leg straight on the ground.
  3. Hold the knee with both hands and gently pull it closer to your chest to deepen the stretch.
  4. Hold the position for a set duration before switching legs.
