How to do it
The kneeling hip flexor stretch relaxes the front of the hip.
Place one knee on the floor (on a cushion) and the other foot in front of you, knee bent at 90°.
Squeeze the glute of your rear leg and gently push your pelvis forward until you feel a stretch in the front of your hip. Hold, then switch sides.
Do not arch your lower back: keep your pelvis slightly tilted backward.
