Lateral Lunge Stretch
A mobility drill that stretches the hip flexors, inner thighs and hamstrings. Stepping out to the side and dropping your hips reaches muscle groups that straight-ahead movements miss. It's a good addition to a warm-up or cool-down for freer lower-body movement.
How to do it
- 1
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
- 2
Step out wide to one side with your right leg and plant the foot with toes angled out slightly.
- 3
Keep your left leg straight as you bend the right knee over your toes, leaning your torso forward a little and pushing your hips back.
- 4
Feel the stretch through the inner thigh and hip.
- 5
Push off the right foot to return to the start.
- 6
Repeat on the other side, alternating for the set.
