Instructions
Preparation
- Lie on tall bench with thigh hanging down off end or side
of bench. Raise opposite thigh toward side of torso. Hook hand
around inside of upper thigh. Grasp elbow with opposite hand
and keep arms close to body.
Execution
- Allow lower thigh to drop toward floor. Hold stretch. Repeat
with opposite side.
Comments
- Alternatively, both hands can anchor upper thigh, on hand
inside and other on out side of thigh. The leg may also hang
from side of bench if body is positioned slightly diagonal. If
stretch is not felt, pull upper thigh closer to side of torso
with both hands or use taller bench if heal touches floor.
