7 Stretches For Tight Hips
Wide-Legged Split
To stretch your hips, hamstrings, and inner thighs, do a
wide-legged split.
- Start off in Wide-Legged Forward Bend D pose.
- Widen your feet a little in order to place your palms flat on the ground right below your shoulders.
- Start to inch your feet further apart, making sure to keep your heels wider than your toes. Keep the soles of your feet flat on the ground at all times to protect your knees.
- As your hips get lower, you can prop yourself up with your forearms, and then move down to your shoulders (as shown). If your shoulders are on the ground, turn your head to the side, and rest your cheek on the ground so you don't bruise your chin.
- Stay here for five deep breaths. Then walk your feet back together and stand up when you're ready.
