Quadriceps lying stretch
Equipment
Bend your right knee, bringing your heel as close to your buttock as you can.
Reach back with your right hand and grasp your right ankle. If you can't reach your ankle, you can use a strap or towel wrapped around your foot.
Gently pull your foot towards your buttock until you feel a stretch in your quadricep, the front of your thigh. Be careful not to strain your knee or lower back.
Hold the stretch for about 30 seconds, then gently release and repeat the exercise with your left leg.
