How to do it

  1. 1

    Start off by lying on the floor.

  2. 2

    Extend one leg straight and pull the other knee to your chest. Hold under the knee joint to protect the kneecap.

  3. 3

    Gently tug that knee toward your nose.

  4. 4

    Switch sides. This stretches the buttocks and lower back of the bent leg and the hip flexor of the straight leg.
