8 Hip-Mobility Exercises For Better Flexibility, According to Experts

This pose is a deep hip-opening posture that encourages flexibility and mobility in the hips and groin, while also strengthening the legs and opening up the chest. For an advanced variation, you can move down to your forearms in the lunge.

• Begin in a low lunge position with one foot forward and the other leg extended back. Your front knee should be directly above your ankle.
• Bring both palms to the inside of the front foot. A common mistake is to hunch the upper back, so keep your gaze forward, looking toward the top of the mat, and imagine your spine long from the base of your spine to the crown of the head.
• Repeat twice on each side, holding for 5-7 breaths each.
