Hip Extensor/Abductor Stretch (Gluteus Maximus)

Hip Extensor/Abductor Stretch (Gluteus Maximus)

Start in a kneeling position with your arms and elbows lying on the floor. The leg you are kneeling on is rotated inwards and the heel positioned under your opposite thigh. Push the other leg slowly back and carefully lower your buttock (bent side) beside your heel. The stretch should be felt in the buttock of the bent side. Try to extend the leg out as much as possible with relaxed hips to increase the stretch.

Caution if you have any knee problems.
