Hip Flexor Arches

From a half-kneeling lunge, tuck the pelvis into a posterior pelvic tilt, squeeze the trailing glute, and arch the torso back with an overhead arm reach to deeply stretch the psoas and anterior hip.

Key points

  • Engage posterior pelvic tilt first to lock the hip flexor in tension
  • Squeeze the glute on the kneeling side continuously
  • Reach the same-side arm up and over into a slight lateral and backward arch

Common mistakes

Overarching the lower back without engaging the glute, missing the hip flexor stretch.
