One stretch. Two different targets. 🎯
The half-kneeling stretch is a great example of how small changes in position can shift what tissues you are focusing on.
🟢 Back leg straight behind
Targets the rectus femoris, one of the quadriceps muscles that crosses both the hip and knee.
🟢 Foot turned inward
Places more emphasis on the Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL), a muscle on the outside of the hip that can contribute to feelings of tightness around the hip and thigh.
Sometimes it is not about finding a new stretch. It is about making small adjustments to get the most out of the one you are already doing. ✨
Save this for later and give both variations a try 👌
