Exercise of the Week #34 Standing Quad Stretch

In the video we describe the importance of contracting the antagonistic muscle groups to help provide extension of the hip. This is what allows for you to actually lengthen out the muscles through the hip flexors and quadriceps.

    I have heard a lot of tricks for balancing such as touching your belly button and staring at a spot on the ground. Seems easier to just grab a partner or a solid object like Loren is doing.
