a little bit much more aggressive I'' m gon na grab this leg and also I'' m gon na draw this. knee in the direction of my upper body. – [Bob] As well as you could see just how the leg lifts, while.
he'' s lifting this leg. -So as I do that, that'' s promoting a stronger stretch on this hip flexor. Currently, if you'' re having a tough time getting this knee, you can take a belt similar to this under your knee or over the.
top, whatever exercises best. As well as that'' s a little simpler. What jobs also much better specifically if you have,.
like, arthritic hands. – [Bob] That'' s a stretch band.- Yep, and after that you simply.
will do the same thing. However with this, there'' s. loopholes every 6 inches as well as after that you wear'' t need to. grip, you can use your arms. It'' s just an alternative if.
you have that scenario. – [Bob] Outstanding, Brad. – Yep. – Alright, this next one.

the previous stretch. -Excellent. Alright, this next one has actually a.
number named after it, Brad. – Yes. – It'' s called the number 4 stretch. – That'' s right. So this is a really nice'one,. it ' s one of my favorite ones. You can do this 2 various methods. Begin with your legs level. I'' m gon na stretch my ideal hip. I ' m gon na bend the knee, take my ankle joint take place top of the knee over. right here, over the knee cap. And also if you'' re looking.
from the ceiling down it looks like a figure 4. That'' s why we obtained that name. – [Bob] Right. Allow gravity pull that knee down. If it really feels all right there, and also.
you desire more of a stretch, take your hand placed some gentle.
stress down like that.If that '
s simple, just bring.
your other boost such as this. It'' ll make the stretch
a. little more hostile. Once again, you can place some pressure.
below if there'' s no pain, just a good healthy and balanced stretch feeling. As well as if you'' re actually.
versatile, you can do this. As well as you understand that will be,.

actually hip internal rotation. – Ooh. – We simply did kind of outside turning. Now turn it in. – Right, so we'' re talking.
concerning what'' s taking place. I think about it with the femur. This is interior. We desire it to go this means. So the foot – – [Bob] No, that'' s external. – Oh yes. (laughs) I get that mixed up all the time. I made use of to do that in institution as well. So what I'' m gon na do is make. sure I have room over below. And also I'' m gon na bring this. foot over like this. As well as I'' m gon na allow the knee decrease. So the foot is in fact on the exterior of the body, in a manner of speaking. And also just do that. You know, if you'' re on a larger bed it really works better. You can kind of finagle your body around to see how it works.Again, you need to
not produce. any type of acute pain in the hip. If you do, you should refrain from doing this stretch. It simply must seem like a great stretch.- Brad, one more means you. can do it is actually maintain your legs with each other and also. bring this set over like that and pull it right into an interior rotation. -Really, this one I like better. I failed to remember concerning that, initially. This obtains that IT band,. the hip, a little bit a lot more.
– [Bob] A little more aggressive. – As well as it'' s much easier to do generally. I wan na do the other.
side to balance myself. But yes, nice. Yeah, I type of-.
