Yoga Block Flexibility For Beginners – 
 6|7: Quadriceps, psoas, groin, inner thigh

Quad, groin, and inner thigh tightness are common, especially if you’re seated at a computer all day. When you’re seated all day you’re quite literally training your quadriceps to remain in a shortened position.

This stretch will lengthen the quadriceps, Psoas, groin, and inner thigh by using the block to cushion the knee while placing pressure on the insertion point of the quad muscles. Pressing the hip forward and down while bending and straightening the leg lengthens against the endpoint using the active resistance to ease tense locked-up quads.

✔️How to do it

– Use two foam yoga blocks on the same side of the body

– Place left hand on the block, wrist under the shoulder.
– Place left knee on the block and lunge deeply forward trying to get the left hip parallel to the floor.
– Get the back thigh on the block at the base of the quad, yet above the knee.
– Bring the right leg forward in a deep lunge.
– Bend and straighten the left leg feeling the tension in the thigh.
– Lean into the left thigh every time you bend the knee.

– Start with ten repetitions and work up to timed holds of up to one minute eventually trying to grab the ankle.
