Standing Quadriceps Stretch

Bend the knee of your leg that you want to stretch.

Grab the foot of that leg with your hand on the same side and bring it back toward your buttock until you feel a gentle stretch across the front of your thigh and hip.

While you take your foot back, make sure to keep the top part of your leg straight, so that your knee is pointing to the ground rather than sideways.

Keep breathing and hold the stretch for at least 20 to 30 seconds.

Release and repeat on at least two to four times.

Breathe deeply and hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, release and repeat on the left leg, this time holding your ankle with your right hand. Stretch each leg one to five times in a stretching session.
