Instructions

  1. Sit tall on the floor with your legs extended in front of you and a towel rolled or placed behind your working knee.

  2. Bend your working knee and wrap your hands securely around your shin, placing the towel tightly behind the joint crease.

  3. Gently pull your knee closer to your chest using your arms while keeping your torso upright and your opposite leg extended.

  4. Hold the tightest comfortable flex position for a moment, feeling the stretch and compression behind the knee.

  5. Slowly release your grip and return your leg back to the starting extended position in a controlled manner.
