Instructions

The quadricep stretch is a great move to stretch the front of your thigh or quadricep. Steps : 1.) Start off either using a post or tall weight bench for balance while standing upright with your abs drawn-in. 2.) Raise one leg off of the ground and flex the knee while standing and stabilizing on the other leg. Use your opposite hand and take hold of the foot and pull it back slight until you feel a stretch in the front thigh. Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. 3.) Slowly lower the leg and repeat the same on the opposite side.
