@drbriancox ・ The standing quad stretch is one almost everybody has seen, but it is not often done correctly. Last week @seanwes shared my page (thank you!) and said he was looking for some more quad stretches, so here’s a start. - This is great for runners, but anybody can do this stretch being really mindful of the keys. - I like doing it with my back foot resting on something instead of holding it. This way you don’t have to focus on balance, and you can better measure your two sides against each other. If you don’t feel a stretch put your back foot on something higher. - KEYS: 1. Keep everything in line: Knees even, shoulders and hips square, toes forward. 2. Tighten your butt and feel the stretch in your hips but don’t arch your back 3. Keep everything exactly the same on each side so you can find difference 4. Keep the hips level (don’t sit in your hip). 5. Hold for 15 seconds at a time. - Everybody needs to work more on the stiffer side, but it’s even more important for endurance training. Tightening your butt will help you feel it a little more. - #stretch #running #fitfam #healthybody #activelifestyle #kneepain #quadstretch #exercisetips #sportstherapy #mobilitytraining #health #rehab #orchardparkny #tightquads #runnersknee #strong https://www.instagram.com/p/BtZXXr0gzT2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4uvcuoyociw0

Yoga tip: if you have trouble grabbing your foot in king dancer, try it with shoes on. 😉 Even with tennis shoes, this post-walk dancer was a challenge for me tonight. It's been a while! #tighthammies #tightquads #tighteverything #stillgotit #kinda #ifelldown #stillcounts #natarajasana #yoga #balance #backbend #yogaeverydamnday #charlestonyoga #dogphotobomb
