I found this stretch just doing a google search with the above header. I’ve been doing it quite aggressively, two or three times a day, before yoga classes, and am finding it’s really helping open my tight right hip flexor. And as an added bonus it’s also loosening my tight SI joint on the same side. Love it!

It has helped in all postures where the hips need to move forward.

Hi, Amy. This one was new to me, it’s different than the usual hip flexor stretches which I used to do when running marathons in the ’90s, the bent leg forward and the other straight back then eventually knee on the ground. This one seems quite a bit different to me, even more focussed on the h-flexor. Anyway, new or old, it’s a good one!
