💪✨ Standing Hip Flexor & Quad Stretch ✨💪

Tight hips and quads from standing, walking, or physical work? This stretch helps relieve tension and improve mobility.

How to do it:

Stand tall, holding onto a chair or wall for balance if needed.

Bend one knee and grab your ankle or foot behind you.

Gently pull your heel toward your glutes, keeping knees close together.

Tuck your pelvis slightly forward to feel a deeper stretch in your hip flexor.

Hold 20–30 seconds, then switch sides.

✅ Relieves lower back & hip tension
✅ Improves posture and flexibility
✅ Quick stretch you can do anywhere
