Hip - Lateral Rotation (External Rotation)

Expert Advice

Keep your hips stable and avoid compensating by tilting your pelvis. The rotation should come from the hip joint itself.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.
  2. Bend one knee and place the foot of the bent leg on the outside of the opposite knee.
  3. Gently press on the bent knee with your hand or elbow to increase the stretch.
  4. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds.
  5. Release and repeat on the other side.
