In between chopping veggies and doing the dishes, it's nice to take a break and stretch while in the kitchen. After doing the Counter Shoulder Stretch, give this hip opener a try. If you hold it for a while, you'll also be working your glutes and quads.
To learn how to do this read more.
- Stand with your left side next to the counter, about a foot away. Place your left hand on the surface to help you stay balanced.
- Lift your right foot off the floor and bend your right knee. Use your right hand to gently pull your right knee open to the side. Try to keep your left leg and torso straight. Pull your right knee back as far as you can and gaze to the left. Stay there for at least 30 seconds, or hold longer to feel this in your right quad and bum.
- When you're done, slowly release your right foot back to the floor. Turn your body around so your right side is next to the counter and repeat this exercise with your left knee.

I tried this earlier today and it'll be tough to work into my daily kitchen chores. It's not something I've seen before, so it gets points for novelty.
1Hip opener stretches feel sooo good!
