Knee-to-Chest Stretch For Your Back
Stretch It: Knee-to-Chest Stretch
The knee-to-chest stretch is a great way to stretch out the muscles of your lower back. This is one of my favorite back exercises because it feels so good. Here is how you do it:
- Lie on your back with your knees and hips bent and the backs of your heels flat on the floor.
- Slowly pull one knee to your chest as far as you can — you should feel a stretch in your lower back.
- Keep the opposite leg relaxed in a comfortable position, with your leg extended (shown) or you can bend your knee if that feels better).
- Hold for 30 seconds and then repeat with the opposite leg.
