Stretch Two - Advanced Hip Flexor Stretch (See Photo #2) - Begin in a forward lunge position and drop your back knee to the floor.
- Raise your arms and hands up over your head and look up.
- Press your hips forward and down toward the floor and feel a stretch through your torso, hip, groin and thigh.

You can modify either of these stretches based upon your own anatomy, flexibility and limitations. Be sure to keep your forward knee over or behind your ankle and not in front of your ankle.
