Equipment

1

2

Once you're on your left hip, use your right hand to push your right knee down towards the floor, stretching your hip.

3

Hold this position for about 20 to 30 seconds, breathing deeply and trying to relax into the stretch.

4

Slowly roll back to the starting position and switch legs, repeating the stretch on the other side.

Pro Tip

Leg Alignment: The top leg should be bent at the knee and placed in front of the lower leg. This provides stability and prevents you from rolling too far during the stretch. Make sure your knee doesn't extend beyond your toes to avoid putting excess stress on your knee joint. Slow and Steady: Roll your hips and upper body backward, keeping your arm and head in place. The movement should be slow and controlled. Never force the stretch; instead, go to the point where you feel a gentle stretch and hold it there. Bouncing or forcing the stretch can lead to injuries. Consistent Breathing: Don't hold your breath during the stretch. Instead, breathe consistently and deeply
