Post Workout Stretching Routine #2 (No Measure)
Dragon Pose
The dragon pose helps open the hip and groin area, and targets the hip flexors and quads.
Reps: 1-2 mins
Sets: 1 (each side)
From a tabletop (all-fours) position, step your right foot between your hands, with your right knee just above the heel.
Lower your left knee to the floor, sliding your leg back until you feel a nice stretch in the left hip and thigh, and gently press your front foot into the floor.
Keep your hands on your front knee or either side of your front foot, and hold the pose for 1-2 minutes before repeating on the other side.
Seated Straddle
The seated straddle pose is great for stretching the hips, hamstring, calves, shoulders, and arms.
Reps: 1-2 mins
Sets: 1
Begin seated on a mat or the floor, extending your legs out wide and reaching forward with your fingertips.
Hold this position, breathing deeply throughout. Each time you exhale, reach further to increase the stretch.
Hold the pose for 1-2 minutes for a deep stretch, then release.
Single-Leg Seated Forward Fold
The single-leg seated forward fold stretches your spine, shoulders and hamstrings.
Reps: 1-2 mins
Sets: 1 (each side)
Sitting with your back straight, extend your left leg and flex your toes towards your face.
Bend your right knee and bring the sole of that foot to the inside of your left thigh.
Inhale and extend your hands, arms and the crown of your head up to the sky, then turn your torso to face the extended leg and fold forward.
Hold this for 1-2 minutes for a deep stretch, then repeat on the left side.
Couch Stretch
This stretch is great for opening your hips and targeting your hip flexors.
Reps: 90 secs
Sets: 1 (each side)
Keeping your core engaged, move your left knee backward, positioning it as close to the couch/box as you can. Your left foot and shin rests against the couch/box, and your lower left leg points toward the ceiling.
Keeping your hands on the ground for support, step your right foot forward.
Plant your foot on the ground to enter a kneeling position. Your right knee should be bent at roughly 90 degrees, with your ankle under your knee.
Keeping your core engaged, lift your torso and come to an upright kneeling position.
Place your hands on hips or right knee and press your left hip forward, squeezing shoulders back toward your spine to attain good posture.
Make sure your left foot is pointing straight up and both hips are squared, pointing straight ahead – you don’t want your hips to rotate to one side or the other, or to angle up or down.
Do this for 90 seconds on each side, making sure that you don’t overextend your back.
Pigeon Pose on Box
This is one of the best stretches to counterbalance the negative side effects of sitting. It will help release the hips and lower back muscles, bringing better flexibility.
Reps: 1-2 mins
Sets: 1 (each side)
Bend your right knee and place it on a box, so your shin is parallel to the top box edge.
Keeping your standing leg straight, square your hips towards the front of the box and bring your torso down into a forward bend over your right leg.
Spend 1-2 minutes on each side, slowly moving between pushing your chest to your knee for 10 seconds before releasing.
