Knee-to-Chest Stretch

Posted April 21, 2015
By Personal Trainer Food

In addition to healthy eating and exercise, stretching is an important part in  maintaining a healthy body! The knee-to-chest stretch focuses on the muscles of your lower back and hamstrings.


Instructions:

  1. On a firm surface, lie on your back with the backs of your heels flat on the floor
  2. Gently pull one knee up to your chest until you feel a stretch in your lower back.
  3. Bring the knee as close to your chest as comfortably possible.
  4. Keep the opposite leg relaxed in a comfortable position, either with your knee bent or with your leg extended.
  5. Hold for about 30 seconds.
  6. Switch legs and repeat.

Note: This stretch is not recommended if you have osteoporosis because it may increase the risk of compression fractures in your vertebrae.
